Spike proteins and chlorinated pool water

[863127]

Does the concentration of chlorine in a public pool prevent spike proteins from swimmers being able to infect others in the pool?

The spike protein doesn't need the live virus to deal any damage (take a look at the vaccines). I'm not sure if chlorine or chlorine based cleaners would destroy the spike proteins themselves.

However I have read that chlorine dioxide in particular tears pathogens apart on a molecular level though, so maybe it would destroy the spike proteins?

Also the amount of spike proteins present in the water may not be enough to cause damage, who knows?

Why would you want to expose yourself to that much chlorine regardless of spike proteins?

Even if there were spike proteins in the pool water, it is diluted tremendously, no comparison to an injection or infection. The skin is a great barrier, so one only would have to worry about eyes and mouth. If you don’t dive, then there is no sensible risk.

Is it diluted enough though; if maybe a majority of people in the pool were vaccinated and assuming they're still making spike proteins that can be transmitted from their skin touching another person's skin, then other than the chlorine doing something wouldn't the spike proteins in the water and the water being absorbed into the skin make it easy for modified spike protein mRNA to get into blood and then a risk of modified DNA for long term production? So if the chlorine doesn't prevent that...

It's not a question of wanting to be exposed to chlorine, but of wanting to swim laps. Hard to do without chlorine exposure if you don't live near a body of water where it's safe to swim and warm year-round

lol, the spike protein concentration that actually enters your body will be infinitisemal if not actually zero. just liquidating all the swimmers and diluting them into the pool would probably not result in a dangerous concentration, but in reality you're only taking the body fluids that leave their body, which undoubtedly are filtered in a sense from spike proteins, diluting them in the pool, and then applying the same reverse filter to what you're coming into contact with. and all of the swimmers are healthy enough to go to the pool and not intubated in the hospital. really says a lot about herd mentalities when the corona sceptics suddenly start being just as paranoid over a infectious threat orders of magnitude less likely to be dangerous than any virus
