OMG...
ReplyDeleteNow there'll be a run on bottled water.
And if it's unsafe for infants i doubt there'll be many adults willing to drink much (if any) either.
Right... not good at all.
It has been nearly impossible to get any water for a week now. This announcement will make it impossible.
ReplyDeleteactive carbon filters will remove iodine
ReplyDeleteradioactive iodine has a half life of 8 days....stick your tap water in the fridge for 2 weeks and put a date on it.
