Di sans the “a” actually means “two” or “double” and I always read the word diarrhea as “double”-flow.
Like di-a-rrhea. Iike the “a” connected the two words!! I don’t know if im right or if you’re right because they both TECHNICALLY make sense, but I think that “double-flow” makes a lot more sense than “through-flow.” I dunno, just this humble boy’s opinion! 😉😀
And if you go to the merriam webster medical dictionary you’ll see that “Di” does, in fact, mean “two” or “double.” Jkeller0009 (talk) 12:44, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Some thoughts on further improvements
I have some improvement suggestions but don't have time to make them myself in the near future:
- Just wondering if the lead image could be different, maybe less "medical"/sciency/microscopic?
- The sentences that include figures (epidemiology) should be updated.
- Recheck the section on sanitation; perhaps link better with the WASH#Health_aspects section (I've added a link to it now). EMsmile (talk) 10:59, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
- the picture should be removed and not replaced with anything 68.8.117.213 (talk) 20:11, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
