Researchers in City X recently discovered low levels of several pharmaceutical drugs in public drinking water supplies.

They pointed out that the drug levels were so low that they could only be detected with the most recent technology, which suggested that the drugs may have already been present in the drinking water for decades, even though they have never had any discernible health effects.
Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the researchers' reasoning?
A. If a drug found in drinking water is not a significant public health hazard, then its presence in the water will not have any discernible health effects.
