FLINT, Mich. (AP) -- The federal government says filtered tap water is safe for everyone in Flint, Michigan, lifting a recommendation that pregnant women, nursing mothers and children under 6 drink only bottled water to avoid lead exposure.

The EPA says samples from high-risk areas i

Government says all is well........drink.  I would still use bottled water folks.

Filters in an environment like Flint would be fully deactivated within one day, maybe less. 

Trust the government at your peril!

The ONLY safe water to drink in the USA is distilled water.

flint is a sh*thole, and has been for decades.  it's the murder capital of the world;  more violent than chicago, which is almost as violent as fallujah.  if the water doesn't kill you, the guy down the street probably will.

flint is the poster child for democrat government.
