Without exception, water bodies, located in the city literally teeming with pathogens of intestinal diseases, viruses hepatitis A and parasites.
As always, before the start of the bathing season, specialists of Rospotrebnadzor, together with the interdepartmental commissions of administrations of districts of St. Petersburg, conducted an assessment of all areas with recreation areas for swimming, of which there are 24.
