We should worry abut drugs in our drinking water. We all want clean water and we do not want to get sick. These discoveries were surprising because of prescription and over the counter drugs are being flushed down the toilet because of expired prescriptions and ending up in our drinking supply. The discoveries were found in many water districts around the country and has risen questions if the water is safe. I think it is scary that the drugs found in tap water and we should find alternatives for discarding drugs rather than flushing it down the toilet.
