True the article states it found “genetic material from E. coli bacteria”. That’s a whole lot different than finding E coli.
Jump in a pond, stream, river whatever and it will likely have far higher levels of bacteria than a properly maintain public pool.
no kidding
freepers always jump off the cliff as concern bots
im old
been in pools forever..and will this summer at our little club pool a mile away..which has a diving board btw....something else concern ninnies have destroyed
still here for now
who would deprieve their kid of pool time with their buddies over this alarmist garbage
like you said....any pond or slow moving stream except in really cool places will likely be worse
i was at very high altitudes many years ago hiking (13,000 or so) between Ouray and Lake City CO near the Animas rivers and drank high above the tree line spring or snow leak water and got sick as a dog on the drive back to Dallas ...
years and years I had drank from mountains in Smokies and Appalachia to Alaska...and later in the Andes and Blue Mountains JA..and Alps too even
but that one got me..likely sheep or goat poop or marmot..something
cramps and fever ..didn’t kill me
summertime pools in Dixie...keeping your children from enjoying that is meaner than the very rare chance of a turd
and pee...does anyone think a cup of kids pee in a 100,000 gallon pool means anything?
keeping pools clean is a big help and requires a good cleaner or diligent lifeguards
