    La Giardia es un germen que causa diarrea. Este germen se encuentra en las heces de las personas infectadas. Tiene una cubierta dura que le permite sobrevivir por hasta 45 minutos, incluso en piscinas adecuadamente cloradas.

    La Giardia es una causa común en los Estados Unidos de enfermedades transmitidas por el agua en lugares de recreación acuática (o sea, afecciones producidas por gérmenes en el agua de las piscinas) y puede causar diarrea prolongada (de 1 a 2 semanas). Cualquier persona se puede enfermar.
