As people continue to receive daily updates about the COVID-19 pandemic, water safety amid the crisis has been an ongoing concern<\/a>. In fact, many people have rushed to stores in order to purchase mass quantities of bottled water in fear that there could be an issue with their water supply.\u00a0According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency<\/a>, “America\u2019s drinking water supplies remain a safe and affordable way to access the water needed for drinking, cooking and maintaining personal hygiene during the COVID-19 outbreak. Drinking water regulations established by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ensures tap water is treated specifically to remove or kill pathogens, including viruses.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWater utilities throughout the United States and Canada are prepared to protect public health in normal conditions and in emergencies, and they are committed to keeping safe water flowing, 24\/7,\u201d said AWWA CEO David LaFrance. \u201cDuring times like these, safe and reliable water service is essential for drinking and food preparation, hand-washing and carrying away waste.\u201d<\/p>\n
