A man smiles after finding bottled water on sale in a liquor store in Rio de Janeiro. RIO DE JANEIRO: Widespread complaints over foul-smelling drinking water in Rio de Janeiro have triggered a run on supermarket bottled water, though the public utility denied any health risk on Wednesday .
"The results of the analyses show the presence of geosmin, at a rate sufficient to change the taste. But there is no risk to health," Sergio Marques, the official in charge of water quality, told a press conference. It said the supply from Guandu would be treated with carbon in the coming days to get rid of the geosmin.According to O Globo newspaper, nearly 70 districts of the capital have been affected.
Cedae's president Helio Cabral apologised"to the whole population for the problems in the water supply," which began earlier this month.
