Healthy Swimming

Recreational Water Illnesses (RWIs) are caused by germs spread by swallowing, breathing in mists or aerosols of, or having contact with, contaminated water in swimming pools, hot tubs, water parks, water play areas, fountains, lakes, river, or oceans. They can also be caused by chemicals in the water or chemicals that evaporate from the water and cause indoor air quality problems. RWIs encompass a wide variety of infections including gastrointestinal, skin, ear, respiratory, eye, and wound infections. The public's awarenss of RWIs and healthy swimming behaviors are important tools in helping to stop the transmission of diseases.
