Athletes Fall Ill After Wednesday's Women's Triathlon at Paris 2024, Linked to E. coli
Aug 5, 2024, 12:11 PM
Multiple athletes have fallen ill after competing in the triathlon event at the Paris 2024 Olympics, with some being hospitalized. The illnesses are reportedly linked to E. coli contamination, stemming from the athletes' exposure to polluted water in the Seine River. Despite public health warnings, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Paris organizers proceeded with the event. Australia's triathletes had been taking medicines to combat E. coli for a month ahead of the event due to concerns over pollution levels in the Seine. The incident, which occurred during last Wednesday's women's triathlon, has raised serious concerns about the safety and health measures in place for the games.
