You Need to Know 40% of Americans Pee When They are in a Pool
Chances are, if you go to a public pool, you run the risk of swimming in other people’s pee. But does that make the act of swimming any safer? And should you also add to the mix by urinating in the open water? Or are you better off finding the nearest restroom? A 2019 survey by Sachs Media Group also found that about 51% of Americans use swimming pools as “communal bathtubs” by swimming as a substitute for showering or swimming without a shower after exercise or yard work. And 40% of Americans admit they’ve peed in the pool as an adult — so you can imagine the number of adults who don’t admit to doing the dirty deed.
