Experts are advising Australians to use water filters after dangerous chemicals, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), were found in tap water nationwide.
These contaminants, linked to serious health issues including cancer, kidney and liver disease, and developmental problems in children, have been detected in every state and territory. Despite US authorities declaring no safe level of exposure to these chemicals, Australian regulatory agencies have dismissed the evidence.
Dr. Mariann Lloyd-Smith from the International Pollutant Elimination Network criticised the inaction and told media there was an urgent need for water filtration to reduce exposure.
The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age reported that up to 1.8 million Australians have been exposed to these chemicals in drinking water since 2010. Affected areas include major cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and regional centres such as Newcastle and Cairns.
The US Environmental Protection Agency recently declared PFOS and PFOA likely carcinogenic, prompting calls for extensive testing of Australian water supplies. Experts like Dr. Nicholas Chartres of the University of Sydney advocate for government action, including water testing and supporting the use of filters, while acknowledging the limitations and potential risks of alternatives like bottled water.
Over 2 million Aussies have been exposed to cancer-causing chemicals detected in their tap water.

Cover story in the making being hatched out for the criminal malicious intent of corrupt politicians?
Should go down well with the fluoride
Dentists love it

Bet your bottom dollar that stuff is in Auckland and Wellington’s water supply too
Clown country. I’d never want to live there again. They have no respect for people’s health.
i have no doubt there are such contaminants in the water,fluoride is still there. the spike in cancer occurs shortly after the vax rollout. some sort of explanation is now being trotted out to obfuscate the damage.
Totally agree, it is the water that is causing the ‘turbo cancer’
Do they honestly think we are going to fall for THAT? 🙄
Has anyone the faintest idea how all these chemical are getting into the drinking water ??? Does anybody ever go outside and look up anymore ??? Do you think it could possibly be the geo- engineering constant spraying of our skies ??? Well it is rapidly depleting the ozone layer. When all that grows green outside finally turns yellow because of the altered ph in the soil and the remaining 15% of plankton becomes non existant in the oceans and seas you will soon have a dead sea, quickly followed by a dead planet. Then you will know there is something seriously wrong with our Govts blaming it on ‘global warming’ or ‘climate change’ that lame duck excuse may not cut the mustard anymore . Best we start hussling our Govts now, at current rates of demise of our atmosphere land seas and water we may only have 10 years left on earth.
