Slums have a very horrible Sanitation problem where they have to live around filth which could lead to diseases which they can't cure at time.
"Sanitation systems are nearly absent" Sanitation cannot be found in the slums since they are absent and can't be found.The Quote shows how Sanitation systems cannot be found in the slums and they appear to be absent of the area due to the people in the slums living in filth. Resources are scarce in Slums leading to misfortune to the humans who in habit the area. That Concludes My Defending Points toward what problems Slums may have.
Slums are Overpopulated areas that have negative effects on the population there due to sanitation, lack of resources, and Lack of support from the Government.
Sanitation can bring problems to the Humans in Slums due to nothing being clean attracting infections, Lacking Resources in slums, could be the fact that they have no sanitary food or clean water which could give the body infections, No Government support makes the slums self-ruled and having no help at all from the government, such as receiving resources to help.
The Only question left to answer is what can be done to help.
