Dr. Ezike: Swimming Pools Are Not Safe To Use During Coronavirus Pandemic Because Of ‘Fecal Shedding’

CDC says:

There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.

"should"

Who knows what to trust.
Who is this Doctor??????????

The obvious solution, stop watching CNN, MSNBC, PBS, ABC, NBC, see a common thread here? Their job is to get you to watch more fluff. I'm a doctor, I'm on TV listen to me! BS! The same clowns that said you could get it swimming in the ocean! Really? An old wise man once said, We have nothing to fear, but fear itself!

most likely there's more danger going into the ocean with all the crap that gets thrown into that body of water

we don't even think about swimming in a fresh water lake or pond down here.....aside from the quality of the water itself, there's a gator population in every one of them

My ex wife knew it all.

And what about Lakes and Ocean fecal matter?
 
Well, think about all the fecal matter and other stuff like rotting fish, bird droppings, etc, in lakes and the ocean!?!? Me thinks swimming pool water might be better but still, I certainly don't feel the need to get in the soup either way!! 😊

Just announced 99.2% of those that died in NY had underlying illness. If you already have an illness, stay home.

I just Googled dr ezike. She’s a pediatrician and her patient base likely has fecal shedding in swimming pools. We are not in her patient base, we are adults.

Thank you. At least one sane person in this bunch.

Brings to mind the clip from "Caddy Shack":

Classic "Caddy Shack" doodie in pool- Hilarious! - YouTube

Guess we should be content to sit at home forever than.

Will probably wait a few weeks and see how going into pools seems to be working out.

This makes me think of a scene from "Caddyshack" -- Bill Murray and the Baby Ruth bar.
