Inside Edition had a story last night about the high bacteria counts in the water supplies of 75% of airlines. Most of us would not drink the water from the sink in the lavatory but we might brush our teeth with it. Also, the drinking water that is provided during the beverage service often comes from the same water supply as the sink in the lavatory. They didn't mention the icecubes but that concerns me too.
The scientist who conducted the tests said that it convinced him to carry his own potable water supply the next time he flies. He said that the levels of bacteria in the samples could cause gastroenteritis in a healthy person, to say nothing of what it would do to a medically compromised one.
Something to think about.
