That is 100% untrue, even the flint water could be treated to be potable.

In your home? If you knew the water was that contaminated would you trust your home water treatment equipment to remove everything? In that situation I think I'd buy bottled water until things are resolved.

Distilling water with an activated carbon filter does remove everything.

Sure, how much does that system cost and does it actually taste good to drink? I've heard distilled water tastes horrible.

if you remove everything from the water with this method, or any other method, there is systems to re-mineralize water... (Reverse osmosis would also remove most of the lead)
