Can the COVID-19 virus spread through pools and spas/hot tubs?

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) at this time says that 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 or bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.  You can find more information here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/water.html
