Why did the actor get sick? Drinking water contaminated with bacteria can lead to severe symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and fever.
For example, tourists in Egypt or Mexico are warned against drinking tap water, which is very popular and safe in Canada. Meanwhile, even ice cubes in drinks made from contaminated water can be dangerous. Pool and shower water can also be hazardous.
