Hi, I am doing research in Cuban Water sanitation and I was researching the following;

Do you ever worry about cubas water supply and how clean it is?

Did you know that Cubas main health problem is waterborne diseases?

Are there many water sanitation companies in Cuba helping the problem? Do you think they need more?

Would you like there to be more promotion of safer and cleaner water in Uk?

There are no private water companies in Cuba it is a Communist state.Most Cubans cannot afford bottled water but especially since the Cholera outbreak in Santiago de Cuba boil their water. With the exception of large cities, most sanitation is done through septic systems - hence the use of receptacles for toilet paper - like the Greeks. Most of the water supply systems leak in the streets.
