The Hidden Dangers of Bottled Water in Mexico: Millions at Risk of Contamination

Puerto Vallarta (PVDN) – Around 40 million people in Mexico consume bottled water from approximately 24,000 local refillers, most of which operate without a license from the Federal Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risks (Cofepris) and fail to comply with health standards. Therefore, an estimated 30 million citizens may be consuming contaminated water, as stated by Juan Francisco Bustamante Ruisanchez, President of Agua en México.
