According to the non-profit organization water.org:
At any given time, half of the world’s hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from diseases associated with lack of access to safe drinking water, inadequate sanitation and poor hygiene.
The majority of the illness in the world is caused by fecal matter.
Almost one-tenth of the global disease burden could be prevented by improving water supply, sanitation, hygiene and management of water resources.
