I don’t know about that either. As a lap swimmer, with one person in a lane, we’re perhaps 3 feet from each other. For walkers, it’s much tighter usually. That’s in the Sports pools. In the neighborhood pools, forget about it. No one misses swimming more than I, but it’s magical thinking to think it’s safe.
