Talk to General Practitioner on Drinking Water - Coronavirus

person-avatar

Asking for Other, Male, 21 years old, Lahore

In these days of coronavirus, what is the best option of drinking water. I used to drink Nestle bottle water, but someone told me that stop it and start drinking the municipality water after boiling it. They told me that in many countries bottled water factories are closed because of virus suspect. What is your opinion. I am in lahore, what is the best option for water?

Boiled water is good and economic. There is no special recommendations to use mineral water, etc.

Corona virus is droplet and air borne infection, it had nothing to do with use of water .
best is to use filter or boil water at home.
boiling temperature of water kills harmful bacteria and germs so it is the safest one

Best Option is Boil Nestle water for 15 minuts and then drink
because municipality water may b hard water and contains more bicarbs contants than required and it does not contain proper quantity of minerals 🙂

Boiled water is best and economical, there is no guidelines or recommendation to use mineral water

Boil the normal water and let it cool down then store in normal bottles and use this water.
it is better than bottled mineral water

I’m not aware that factories have been closed because of virus suspect-instead there is complete lockdown so that might be the reason of closure.Water needs to be clean and boiled,doesn’t matter where it it is sourced from.Read Bismillah,avoid extremely cold/boiling water,drink while sitting in 3sips and say AlhamdulilAllah on finishing.In Sha Allah nothing will harm you

Drinking mineral water from a credible company has no parallel and must be consumed without a second thought, although if someone wishes to drink home line water then they must boil it for 5 to 10 minutes continuously to eliminate all germs and viruses.

Water boiled at 100•C for 15 minutes is readily available for almost everyone. In these days of pandemic it is better not to rely on bottled and stored water as the storage facilities in our country are not up to the standard.

General Practitioner in Sargodha - Dr. Areeba Urooj

It's okay to continue drinking NESTLE water as the corona virus is not known to spread via water
However, boiling it just to be on the safe side could prove more effective

General Practitioner in Sargodha - Dr. Ikram Mahmood

lt is better to drink water after boiling not due to Corona but also as a routine .
