Protracted outbreaks of cryptosporidiosis associated with swimming pool use--Ohio and Nebraska, 2000.

.   

Abstract

Swimming is the second most popular exercise in the United States with approximately 400 million pool visits annually. During the summer of 2000, five outbreaks of cryptosporidiosis linked to swimming pools were reported to CDC. This report summarizes the investigations of two of these outbreaks involving approximately 1000 cases and provides recommendations to reduce the transmission of pool-related disease.
