I'm rethinking my plans to swim at my alma mater's pool.

I had planned to rejoin my membership which is a low $48 a month for alums. It's a great Olympic size pool and right across town from me.

I don't think chlorine will protect against the coronavirus. No confidence Trump will do diddly on anything.

As a very senior citizen, this pool would help me establish a good workout routine while relieving my caregiver stress.

2. I think the school will have an announcement soon. I hope that story is right and chlorine plus new

additives are enough. I will conact the athletics department next week.

3. Chlorine WILL protect against Coronavirus. You are more at risk from exposure to those in the

dressing area.

4. We have a really nice pool at our complex, I was discussing

this with my DIL last night. When the Diamond Princess nightmare began, patient zero had been in the pool..but I haven't heard anything else on the subject since then.

5. Is chlorine really the problem?

Both my kids took lesson at the "Y" and they got the worst respiratory illness that they ever had. Of course, they're kids. They probably were in the face of other students.

6. Yikes, my son and dtr in law take my grandson to the Y in lower Manhattan for swim lessons...
