Summer Relief with Swimming! Is the Water Clean? Taipei City Health Bureau Releases Inspection Results

Reported 10 months ago

As the weather heats up, more people are heading to swimming pools to cool off. In order to provide a safe and hygienic swimming environment, the Taipei City Government Health Bureau inspected 145 swimming pools from January to April this year, with 137 pools passing the water quality test, reaching a pass rate of 94.5%, which is higher than the same period in 2013 and 2011. Despite the improvement, 8 pools still failed the test due to exceeding bacteria levels, and were fined NT$2,000 each. The Health Bureau reminded swimmers to follow certain guidelines for a safe swimming experience, such as showering before entering the pool and not swimming if feeling unwell.
