Grateful to @GetzPharmaIntl for the opportunity to discuss the findings of the @ActionResear's #WaterQuality Mapping Project for #Lahore. This important work was supported by @CancerbioC and @GetzPharmaIntl, aiming to address critical water safety issues in the city.

@ActionResear's research shows that 86% of water samples from Lahore have Heterotrophic Plate Count (HPC) levels higher than 1000 CFU/ml, and 61% exceed 10,000 CFU/ml.

What if we could vaccinate ourselves against old age? It may sound far-fetched, but vaccines that target diseases associated with ageing are beginning to show promise. https://t.co/PwKCwBkkdI

[Nousheen Zaidi @Nosheen_Z]

Our #waterquality research reveals a consistent trend: higher coliform levels = more waterborne. Even though coliforms are indicator bacteria and used as proxies, not direct measures of enteric pathogen ingestion, this strong correlation is alarming! #PublicHealthCrisis 🧵

[Maira Hayat @MairaHayat]

Just got some preliminary results back thanks to @Nosheen_Z and the @ActionResear team and WTF is this pani - scary and infuriating AF

[Nousheen Zaidi @Nosheen_Z]

Grateful to @GetzPharma for the opportunity to present at this conference! Discussed how water distribution infrastructure can spread antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Our research found these bacteria in Lahore's water supply. #PublicHealth #WaterSafety #AntibioticResistance

[Nousheen Zaidi @Nosheen_Z]

Latest @ActionResear findings in Lahore reveal a concerning shift: previously clean areas now host fecal coliform & E. coli, including a few DHA phases, Summer exacerbates the problem, exposing sanitation flaws. Urgent action needed to protect public health! #WaterSafety

[Nousheen Zaidi @Nosheen_Z]

🌟 We're excited to share that @ActionResear & @IDEASpak have launched another collaborative initiative! Our month-long digital literacy program in Harpalke is dedicated to empowering young women. 💻 #DigitalLiteracy #GirlsEducation #WomenEmpowerment

[Nousheen Zaidi @Nosheen_Z]

Our team @ActionResear analyzed 1200+ water samples. We identified 7 significant hotspots for fecal bacteria contamination in Lahore:Chungi, Charar, Kirianwala, Kharas Mohalla, Shareefpura, Mustafaabad, and Kot K. Saeed.
