Pathogens On The Beach: Article Analysis

I found this article to be very informative. I and I presume many others were not aware of the large amounts of disease causing pathogens on the beach. When I go to the beach, I always see people eating lots of food and playing in the sand, but I never see anyone using hand sanitizer or washing their hands before eating. I think that if more local studies were put out it would inform the public and they would be able to protect themselves from dangerous pathogens. In the article I saw a picture of and pipe that was releasing raw sewage directly into water at Delray Beach in Florida. How can people be dumping sewage into the water, where people eat and drink and expect no negative outcomes? I personally believe that this needs to be stopped
