This article is a good example of the human-environment interaction and the site of the Dominican Republic. The water is infected with a bacteria most likely because of the region and location of the DR being surrounded by water the bacteria in water can spread quickly and the DR doesn't have the same healthcare places like the U.S. and Canada have. The water supplies the infected people used most likely weren't safe and filtered and that's a result of the human-envirment interaction.
