To date I have heard of no questions concerning copper plumbing in the US.  
About ten years ago, it was discovered that hot water leached lead from 
lead-bearing solder used to join pipes into the water, but I have not 
seen/heard anything since the lead-free solders were mandated in the US.

Just a marginally interesting aside.
