Not sure how anyone can boil water for 9 days, but according to the article. Although, I have a feeling it has more to do with poor writing skills than anything.

This does bring up a point of making sure you have the ability to purify water, even in US cities.

Glad I have RO on my drinking water!

Add the polluted water to a virus outbreak and we have all the makings of medieval plague.

"Considering the extent of this pollution, we should be more than eligible for state and federal assistance,” Mayor Dean Trantalis told the Sun-Sentinel. “We cannot suffer this burden alone.”

Actually, you guys should bear the burden alone. You voted into office this mayor and all the preceding mayors and politicians who were not focused on delivering basic city services. Actually, you are eligible to vote into office people with different budget priorities.
