So with the heat on, everybody wants to know: Can you catch the coronavirus from the swimming pool.

As of now, there’s no evidence that the coronavirus spreads through pool water — and you’re even safer if you swim outside because outdoor pools have a lower risk than indoor ones.

“The coronavirus doesn’t survive in chlorinated water,” Amesh Adalja, an infectious disease expert in Maryland, told Health.com.

Still, Adalja warned the coronavirus travels in air droplets.

“There can be crowded conditions and common touch surfaces (like the deck and the locker room) that may provide an opportunity for the virus to transmit,” Adalja told the website.
