Who decided drinking fountains were unhealthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Who knows?: It is unwise to put your mouth on the metal portion of the drinking fountain, because somebody else may have done so; this was probably more of a worry when there was a lot of tb. The water itself should be fine.
