                    [Summary] => 



The outbreak of dysentery in 39 villages in Loon town in northern Bohol that has downed 186 people was likely caused by contaminated water supply, the Department of Health (DOH) said yesterday. 


"When there is an epidemic of dysentery, contaminated water source is the usual suspect. In this case, we also found out that the chlorinator system of the Loon Water District bogged down before the end of 2006," said Dr. Eric Tayag, the DOH’s chief epidemiologist.
