Can the H1N1 Flu virus be spread at recreational water venues outside of the water?
Yes, recreational water venues are no different than any other group setting. The spread of H1N1 flu is thought to be happening in the same way that seasonal flu spreads. Flu viruses are spread mainly from person to person through coughing or sneezing of people with flu. Sometimes people may become infected by touching something with flu viruses on it and then touching their mouth or nose.
