Miles of the pipeline were supposed to convey water from Huron lake to some cities

include Flint in order to home and industrial use. Unfortunately, this phenomenon that could

have been the dawn of a new era and economic boom became a public health crisis due to the

Legionnaires' outbreak.

Flint's state-appointed managers decided to maintain the water through an old water

treatment plant from Flint River Before Flint's water supply change despite being warned about

the safety of water by A foreman named McFarland.

Twelve people had died and there had been 90 confirmed cases in the year and a half

following the water switch which Neither the public nor most medical professionals were not

aware of this fatal disaster. Drafted alerts were never received by health care providers due to the

absence of committed person managing internal emails chain.

The statistical data demonstrated that the death toll of pneumonia has increased by

roughly 70 percent and many cured patients (at least 20) later died during the water crisis in

Genesee.

involuntary manslaughter, but a new prosecution has been appointed, which has dropped all

charges against him.
