    Is it safe to go swimming?

    Coronavirus might be scary, but it’s not Jaws—it’s still safe to go in the water. But, as Dr. Nita Bharti of Penn State’s Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics explains, you’ll still want to avoid crowded places when looking to escape the heat of the coming summer.

  • Verify: Can COVID-19 survive in ocean water? Here’s what a professor says

    News 8 reached out to Dr. Charles Gerba, Professor of Environmental Virology at the University of Arizona.

    Gerba said at this point, no one can say for sure.

    “We don’t have a lot of data on it right now,” said Gerba.

    Gerba believes the possibility of catching COVID-19 while swimming in the ocean is unlikely.

    “They tend to be more transmitted in aerosol, droplets, contaminated surfaces and not water,” said Gerba.

    According to Gerba, when it comes to seawater, people should be more concerned about areas contaminated by untreated sewage runoff, like in Imperial Beach.

    “The data on whether we’re dealing with [and] infectious virus in sewage or not is still debatable,” said Gerba. “Two studies have said ‘yes, it’s infectious.’ Two have said ‘no’ in feces.”

    Keep in mind, at this point, the CDC has no reported cases of someone getting coronavirus from feces or sewage.
