Waterborne Diseases: Contaminated water sources can lead to diseases such as cholera, typhoid, and hepatitis A. It is crucial to ensure safe drinking water by boiling or using purification tablets.

Vector-Borne Diseases: Stagnant water serves as a breeding ground for mosquitoes, increasing the risk of dengue and malaria. Using mosquito repellent and nets can help mitigate these risks.

Leptospirosis: This bacterial infection is spread through the urine of infected animals, often found in contaminated water. Avoiding contact with floodwaters and wearing protective clothing can reduce the risk.
