Drinking Water
Hi , when I was around 9-10years old I had two months of vomiting issues , after going to multiple doctors , one doctor had recommended us to start using filtered water.
I now usually use mineral water cans of Kinley , bisleri etc but due to the current situation water cans are not available easily. So can I boil and drink the water that we get through the government that is supposedly for drinking. In our apartments the drinking water is stored in a tank and then released to our houses every other day. So can I boil and use that.
Thank you
