Anonymous Coward User ID: 78587646 United Kingdom 04/06/2020 08:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It appears they are messing with our water, adding or increasing chlorine levels due to covid 19 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78667106 As well as drinking water we absorb this into our skin whilst in the shower/bath From one of the articles: ‘The Emaya municipal services agency in Palma has increased the quantity of chlorine in tap water in accordance with coronavirus recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO). This will mean there being 0.5 parts per million (ppm) of chlorine and a pH (power of hydrogen) of 8. Emaya explains that this entails an addition of between 0.1 and 0.2 ppm of chlorine; this is within regulated levels. The pH of the water that is required will be complied with and so this has needed an increase from the current 0.3 to 0.4 ppm of chlorine. This is based on WHO guidelines. Despite there being no risk of contagion from tap water, the agency is following expert advice.’ [link to www.google.co.uk (secure)] [link to www.google.co.uk (secure)] [link to www.connexionfrance.com (secure)] [link to www.dailytarheel.com (secure)] would you rather be drinking peoples piss and shit? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78084014 United States 04/06/2020 08:22 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I always hated that, it was real bad when we lived in town on city water. Had to use a berkey because there was no way my family was drinking that. Showering was pretty bad No longer an issue now that we're on a well/septic system When we had city water the bathroom would get so much mold, it amazes me how we have no mold now. I have heard all the chemicals in city water actually encourages mold growth |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75350810 United States 04/06/2020 08:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Our water company sent out an email telling us they are adding more to our water supply. They always had it but are adding significantly more. It reeks. I never drink the water here cuz there is added flouride to it. Probably why people are so docile here. My hair is drying out from the chlorine and am looking to find a filter to add to my shower. |

Most water utilities have normal levels between 1 and 2 ppm. So adding 0.1 to 0.2 ppm is not significant. LoneStarRising |
Interferon User ID: 76790707 United States 04/06/2020 09:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Chlorine sucks balls. People need to insist their water treatment plant use ozone as the disinfectant. Ozone is a stronger and better disinfectant. It is generated on-site from atmospheric oxygen. And it is tasteless, so doesn't have that chlorine chemical taste. |
