Everyone sick?
Sick people all over the place population dropped 4-5 thousand people. Traffic not to bad hospitals everywhere and yet everyone still sick and none of the hospitals filling up either. Water population is 1%. Ive moved trash to the outskirts of the city.

Noise pollution perhaps? You can try upgrading roads to having trees to reduce noise pollution - And possibly turn two way streets into loops of one way to reduce side street traffic.

There's multiple reasons why this may be happening:

1) Your water intake pumps are taking in contaminated water
2) Your water towers are taking in contaminated water
3) Check your pollution and sound pollution overlays, you may have ground/noise pollution causing residents to get sick
4) Check your budget. Your medical slider may be ticked down.
5) Check your road network - you may have no access to the sick distracts due to one-ways leading in, and no way out.
6) Check that you have enough cemetary/crematorium space - you may have dead bodies piling up which may cause illness.

I know your problem. There are plenty of hospital yet few of them has been filled. That mean the transportation is messing up. Unlike what you think, the trafic may actually very very bad. Pay attention to the kind of road you build. Is it One-way road or Two-Way? If it's one way then the city is pretty much fked since the transportation will be greatly hinder. You will have to manually replace all the One-way road by Two-way.

I am having the same problem 0% Water contamination. It might be possible that with a huge surge of people and newborn children, that they age out at around the same time and surge to the graveyard. It’s just a theory, but I’m starting to see a pattern of this in my city. What I did was build a bunch of death care that I leave turned off till I expect another wave a death. A bit of a bandaid to the problem.

I know this is an old thread but I had this problem recently and found it was in the water towers i had in the ind zone... live and learn. as soon as i destroyed them and took them off the grid it cleared up.

Your water towers or pumps are pumping contaminated water

Yes, I saw that nobody replied this topic more than a year, but I have got the same problem and I solved that by disconnect the water pipes from the landfill sites.

You gave the answer to your question in you OP.
Water pollution is 1%.
It has to be zero.

If you have the DLC installed, as soon as you get road crews available your peeps start to get sick. Game kinda makes you do a lot of things and this is one of them... Install a few of them jawns round your hood and you should be golden, pony boy!
