Nah, in the middle ages you'll be drinking whatever water is in your village's stream or watering hole, and you'll be glad for it too, after you carry it half a mile on your back to your house. If that water gets contaminated with cholera, you'll blame the sickness on the wrath of an angry god, or perhaps a jealous neighbor who witched you.
