    If you're worried about bacteria in public pools, water parks, hot tubs, etc., it's not a big deal. There are other very serious risks -such as car accidents which kill over 40,000 every year, yet millions of people routinely ignore the danger. By the way many people in India actually swim in water that's 1000 times more polluted than anything you'd find in the U.S.: Ganges River - Pollution - YouTube For some reason, they don't contract any illnesses.
