E. coli levels of paris’ seine river soar one month before summer olympics.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

The Seine River remains a contaminated soup of E. coli and other potentially dangerous bacteria — despite Paris’ billion-dollar clean-up efforts ahead of next month’s Olympic games.

The famous waterway is not only one of the City of Light’s most recognizable natural features, it’s also set to serve as the field of competition for triathlon and marathon swimming events when the 2024 Summer Olympics kick off July 26.

Samples collected by the Eau de Paris monitoring group earlier this month showed levels of E. coli bacteria in the Seine hovering around 10 times higher than acceptable levels.

Eau de Paris gathered water samples from four locations spanning the river’s length, including the Alexandre III Bridge, the starting point for the Olympic and Paralympic triathlon and marathon swimming events.

E. coli contamination of water is typically linked to the presence of fecal matter.

It’s usually not fatal, but it can cause a range of unpleasant symptoms like diarrhea, pneumonia, urinary tract infections and sepsis.

In April, the nonprofit Surfrider Foundation Europe, which tested the water in the Seine over a six-month period, recorded “ alarmingly high ” bacterial levels — double what World Triathlon standards allow.

A report put out by Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo’s office detailing Eau de Paris’ test results said they also found enterococci, another kind of gut-dwelling bacteria, in the river water dating back several weeks.

Hidalgo’s office blamed the poor water quality on seasonal factors like sunlight, water temperature and the flow of the river, all of which impact bacteria’s ability to thrive.

“Water quality therefore remains degraded due to an unfavorable hydrological context: rain, high flow, low sunshine, temperatures below seasonal standards and pollution from upstream,” the report read in part.

The problem was compounded by an unusually rainy spring which has caused the river’s flow to be 4-5 times typical summer levels.

France has spent $1.5 billion over the last decade in a futile attempt to clean up the river, trying everything from improving Paris’ sewer system to building new water treatment and storage facilities, France24 reported.

The triathlon events taking place in the Seine are scheduled for July 30, with marathon swimming events in the river set for Aug. 8 and 9.

Paris 2024 President Tony Estanguet in April suggested the triathlon event could be pushed back toward the end of the 19-day games, but even at this late no plans are known to alter the schedule.

Hidalgo and French President Emmanuel Macron have both pledged to take a dip in the Seine ahead of the games to demonstrate its cleanliness, CBS reported .

Brazil vs Costa Rica live updates: Selecao held to shock goalless draw in Copa America opener

Copa America result — Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

• Costa Rica had 2 touches in Brazil’s box and 0 shots on target
• Marquinhos goal ruled out for offside after lengthy VAR check
• Colombia in Group D driving seat after 2-1 win over Paraguay

Something the USMNT has never achieved

Replaced by Endrick in the 71st minute, Vinicius Junior has now been substituted in each of the past six and 10 of the past 11 competitive games he has played for Brazil, dating back to the 2022 World Cup.

Group D outlook

With Group D's opening matchday in the books, let's take a look at the remaining fixtures.

Friday June 28

• Colombia v Costa Rica in Glendale, Arizona
• Paraguay vs Brazil in Las Vegas, Nevada

Tuesday July 2

• Brazil vs Colombia in Santa Clara, California
• Costa Rica vs Paraguay in Austin, Texas

Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica takeaways: Brazilian frustrations as Costa Rica successfully parks the bus

Matches don't get more one-sided

Seven Brazilian players had an individual expected goals figure higher than Costa Rica's team total of 0.03.

Full match stats

Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

• Expected goals: 1.66 - 0.03
• Shots: 19 - 2

• Possession: 74% - 26%
• Corners: 9 - 1

Brazil aren't firing on all cylinders

Although they had been looking better lately, especially after the win at Wembley against England and the draw at the Bernabeu against Spain, Brazil are far from the level they should be at.

It is true that in a game like today's they would normally have won, but the reality is that they have not won any of their last five official matches, suffering two draws alongside three defeats.

At this point, Dorival Junior has not found the key.

Perfect stat to sum this match up

Brazil end the game with 50 touches in the opposition box.

Costa Rica? Two.

Group D standings

Here's how the Group D table looks after Brazil's failure to beat Costa Rica in their opening game.

• Colombia : 3 points, +1 goal difference
• Brazil : 1 pt, 0 gd
• Costa Rica : 1 pt, 0 gd
• Paraguay : 0 pts, -1 gd

FT: Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Costa Rica have done it! They frustrated Brazil all night long and have held on for a point. They rarely came close to threatening Brazil's goal but they'll be absolutely thrilled with this result.

Savio has impressed

90+3' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Savio is staking a real claim for a starting berth on Friday against Paraguay. He's been incredibly positive, showing off quick feet, and should probably have an assist after bursting into the box and laying off for Bruno Guimaraes a minute ago.

Final Costa Rica subs

90+2' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Costa Rica run some time off the clock by replacing Brandon Aguilera and Ariel Lassiter with Gerald Taylor and Joseph Mora.

FIVE minutes added on

90+1' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Five minutes are added on to the end of the match.

Guimaraes is the latest Brazil player to miss a fantastic chance to finally score, firing over the target from close range.

Costa Rica clinging on

88' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Sequeira comes out to claim a long ball forward but fumbles the ball after colliding with Rodrygo. Brazil have a great chance to finally break through but can't find the final ball.

Meanwhile, Mitchell has come back onto the pitch moments after being carried off injured.

Brazil desperate for a penalty

87' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Rodrygo falls over quite easily under contact in the Costa Rica box and Brazil appeal for a penalty for at least the fourth time in this match.

Dorival Junior is absolutely beside himself on the touchline.

Brazil can't find a way through

85' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Savio skips past a few defenders at the edge of Costa Rica's box before taking a shot that's blocked by Vargas.

Costa Rica are really starting to close in on a seriously unlikely clean sheet here.

Martinelli joins the fray

83' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Brazil make their third change as Gabriel Martinelli replaces João Gomes.

Militao booked

80' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

Campbell dances past Militao and the defender responds by tripping him up, earning himself Brazil's first yellow card of the match.

Sequeira denies Arana!

79' Brazil 0-0 Costa Rica

A deflected cross comes to Arana at the edge of the Costa Rica box. He unleashes a powerful first-time shot that looks sure to finally break the deadlock in this match but Sequeira makes an remarkable diving save!

WEST GLACIER, Mont. (AP) — A 26-year-old Pennsylvania woman drowned after being swept over a waterfall on the east side of Glacier National Park, park officials said.

The woman fell into the water above St. Mary Falls at around 5:20 p.m. Sunday. She was washed over the 35-foot (11-meter) tall waterfall and trapped under water for several minutes, the park said in a statement.

Bystanders pulled the woman from the water and administered CPR until emergency responders arrived. She was declared dead at 7 p.m., park officials said.

The woman’s death is under investigation and an autopsy is planned.

Her name was being withheld until family members could be notified.

Drowning is one of the leading causes of death in Glacier National Park, according to the National Park Service.
