I HAD some response and replies to my letter some weeks ago, when I aired my views, stating that my husband and myself always boil tap water and cool it in the fridge before drinking it.

One person said that boiling drinking water increases the chemical content. So, when we make a cup of tea or coffee we are still increasing the additives etc, one wonders why we should be forced to accept that chemicals etc. are added to tap water in the first place.

One kind person said 'so as not to worry me' that the contamination and viruses would be destroyed by the boiling. Some consolation, in my view.
