Abstract

Since January 2025, Pune has reported a spike in cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, a rare disorder that can cause paralysis. This has been linked to contaminated water sources. What precautions can we take? Can this example help students see the real-world relevance of textbook concepts on infectious diseases, water hygiene, wastewater treatment, and antibodies?
