Despite the compact size, the filter is still highly effective. It offers protection
against 99.999999 percent of bacteria (including E.coli and Salmonella), 99.999
percent of parasites (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium), and 99.999 percent
of microplastics. It meets the US EPA and NSF P231 drinking water standards for
removing bacteria and parasites, giving you more confidence that it will keep you
safe.
It provides a three liters per minute flow rate
The Peak Solo can filter up to 2,000 liters of safe drinking water

CDC issues warning over an increase of drug-resistant bacteria, Shigella
and it's also easily transmissible
The bacteria can be spread by a fecal-oral route, person-to-person contact,
and contaminated food and water.
Shigella infections known as shigellosis can cause a fever, abdominal cramping,
tenesmus and diarrhea that is bloody.
The CDC says patients will recover from shigellosis without any antimicrobial
treatment and it can be managed with oral hydration, but for those who are
infected with the drug-resistant strains there are no recommendations for
treatment if symptoms become more severe.
Nationwide, there are nearly 3 million antimicrobial-resistant infections each
year, and more than 35,000 people die as a result, according to the CDC.

There's one thing you should look for, above all else
Can a water purifier filter Coronavirus?
COVID-19 is reported to be about 100 ~ 125 nm in size under electron microscopy.
Theoretically, COVID-19 can be filtered as long as the filter precision is higher than 1 nm.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Reverse Osmosis
Systems have a very high effectiveness in removing viruses (for example, Enteric,
Hepatitis A, Norovirus, Rotavirus).
Microns, also known as micrometers (represented as µm) are a length of measurement equal
to one millionth of a meter. (1,000 um is equal to 1mm.)
Bacteria & Virus Issues
Viruses: Parasitic infectious microbes, composed almost entirely of protein
and nucleic acids, which can cause disease(s) in humans. Viruses can reproduce
only within living cells. They are 0.004 to 0.1 microns in size, which is about
100 times smaller than bacteria.
