Thank you for recognizing this major issue Mayor @SylvesterTurner. Our community has been without water for 3 days which has lead to added expenses and increased stress. The response from 311 was slow initially but public workers have worked very hard the past 24 hours.
A large, 20-inch, water pipe burst on Knight at Almeda Rd & was reported to Houston 311 on Saturday.
Houston Water crews were dispatched to the area. Crews had to expand water outages while they isolated the problem...Now water service is being restored to the area.

Prioritizing medicine and technology does little to improve the health of the population. Safe infant sleep, early childhood development, housing support, earned income tax credits, investments in education... impact population health. @sandrogalea #healthinallpolicies #APHA2019
Hospital-based trauma prevention highlighted for the potential to reduce community violence at #APHA2019 opening session. @ICEHSAPHA @shellindallas
Healthcare is in transition from a “disease system” to a “health system.” - @CDCDirector Dr. Robert Redfield #APHA2019
