From water sources. There are only really a few diseases that can crossover though and most of those are already problems for humans in stagnant water (giardia and salmonella being the big ones). My horses were healthy and the water was changed often so it wasn’t a huge risk.
I was curious so I looked and this is the first thing I found, didn’t seem promising.
The lack of drinking water is not a new problem. Residents have been living like this since 17 April 2023, when Andalucía’s government declared the tap water unfit for human consumption.
The bottled water industry exploded during the 80s, that’s when it became big. But even without that, a canteen is a thing.
Lol, thinking you’re healthy now so it has no impact is a little silly. That not always how long term exposure presents itself. But either way, you might not have been ok. I can play Russian roulette and win 100 times, it doesn’t make playing it any less dumb. I wouldn’t brag about how I played Russian roulette 100 times and won, it just makes me look like a lucky idiot.

But it’s a risk. Why take the risk when you can avoid it by having a bottle of water? You’re rolling the dice every time because why? It’s convenient?
@Lightor @teft heavily depends on the country and even the city. In my region it’s rare for people to drink from bottles at all. We’re fine btw
Where are you located out of curiosity?
@Lightor Andalucía, south of Spain.

@Lightor first time I hear about that, and as I said, it does depend on the city sometimes. Tap water is definitely drinkable in most of the region
It was the 80s. There was no bottled water and I’m perfectly healthy as an adult so obviously it was fine.
