No matter what the CDC says about chlorine killing the virus, my family is very concerned about my return to the pool, due to those who spit, pee, sweat in the pool, and particularly the heavy breathing above the water by other swimmers. Not to mention that they don't 100% believe that chlorine kills the virus, since we are inundated with contradictory recommendations and cautions. Is anyone staying away from pools until it really is "safe" -- the cases don't rise significantly? I worry about being the carrier to my family, esp. my grandson, who I watch and adore. I admit, I'm concerned about safety above the water, no matter what precautions the pools say they are taking. I swam indoors and watched guards look the other way when people don't shower off before getting in, or spit in the pool, and I've seen worse that I won't share here.
One of the community pools will be opening, however, they host camps in the morning (busloads of the little darlings). They won't be in the lap pool, but they will be everywhere else on the grounds. I honestly think I wouldn't feel so reluctant if our State hadn't been inundated with cases. Every day I watched the numbers go up by at least 5000 per day until we hit over 150,000. It was surreal.
I appreciate the conversation we are having about this subject.
