I hope they fix that problem with the burst pipes soon! Do you have any idea how unsanitary that is? Aside from the likelihood that it's going to cause the sewage or septic lines to back up, which can breed all sorts of nasty illnesses, it's also just asking for mold growth! Aspergillus, cladosporium, alternaria...all can be serious and harmful if inhaled by humans!
Although these are also optimal conditions for breeding penicillium, which could be used to create Penicillin, which is invaluable to people like me in the medical field. Antibiotics will help me with my surgical practice! Although if you're allergic, you should let me know and stay far away from the flooding areas.
