Oral – drinking contaminated water or eating contaminated seafood
Dermal – getting contaminated water on your skin and in open cuts or rashes
Aerosol – inhaling water droplets such as those from breaking waves.

When toxic substances enter a body of water, they will be dissolved, become suspended in water or get deposited on the bed of the water body. The resulting water pollution causes the quality of the water to deteriorate and affects aquatic ecosystems. Pollutants can also seep down and effect groundwater deposits. Pollutants enter groundwater, rivers, and other water bodies. Such water, which ultimately ends up in our households, is often highly contaminated and can carry disease-causing microbes.
