People could survive, but it would be hard. Some animals couldn't survive at all. If animals die, then it would affect all other animals because an animal specie could be a food source for other animal species. Some species eat only salt too, so they would be affected also. Salt is also like a mineral, so it could be used for gases, propane, diesel, and other things. It would affect the water fish because well "salt water". And it would affect salt springs. Without salt springs, people could not drink fresh, healthy water because most water plantations get their water from springs. And you couldn't use salt for baths.

"Hyponatremia (British: hyponatraemia) is an electrolyte disturbance (disturbance of the salts in the blood) in which the sodium (Natrium in Latin) concentration in the plasma is too low (hypo in Greek; in this case, below 135 mmol/L). Severe or rapidly progressing hyponatremia can result in swelling of the brain (cerebral edema), and the symptoms of hyponatremia are mainly neurological." "Most patients with chronic water intoxication are asymptomatic, but may have symptoms related to the underlying cause. Severe hyponatremia may cause osmotic shift of water from the plasma into the brain cells. Typical symptoms include nausea, vomiting, headache and malaise. As the hyponatremia worsens, confusion, diminished reflexes, convulsions, stupor or coma may occur. Since nausea is, itself, a stimulus for the release of ADH, which promotes the retention of water, a positive feedback loop may be created and the potential for a vicious circle of hyponatremia and its symptoms exists."
