           Basically the gist I get from it is that people take drugs, their body uses most of them, and the rest is passed out into the treatment system. Even after sewage treatment, flowing to a reservoir and water treatment for drinking some of these particulates still exist. Now the amount it very small, relatively speaking, usually parts per billion or parts per trillion. But personally when I drink water I just want like h2o with maybe some trace elements of limestone to make it tasty. So check out the article and comment on what you think and vote on weather this scares you or not.
