Can the Corona Virus (COVID-19) be transmitted in pools or hot tubs?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released official guidance regarding whether COVID-19 could be transmitted in pools and hot tubs. The CDC explains that there is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pool or hot tubs. Proper, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.
