Swimming banned at Riis Park after bacteria found in water

  

 


NBC News

A popular beach escape for sweltering New Yorkers took a hit this week, the same day heat indices climbed back near the triple digits.

Park officials announced the closure of all swimming at Jacob Riis Park until further notice citing unsafe water conditions.

Samples taken from water along the Queens beachline produced high bacteria levels that exceed the National Park Service safety standards.

Regular swimmers to NYC beaches know well the challenges of getting in the water this summer. In addition to a handful of shark sightings that have suspended swimming for brief periods, large stretches of the Rockaways have been closed through much of the summer for construction and restoration of the beach.

This is nothing compared to a much bigger danger

One should only see whats going on at the Unisphere, dirty feet, pissing, feces, floating diapers. here, the young kids use the pools as a toilet.
And the parents (especially the south of the borders) dont give a shit because that behavior is normal where they come from.
Hey; that warm fresh water is not chlorinated and its running fountain nozzles into the air everybody in Flushing Meadow Park is breathing !!
No cops, no nothing, zero enforcement of health codes already on the books.
Its only a matter of time before a massive deadly airborn outbreak happens.

2-Anybody who wishes to use a fountain, inner city public pool to cool off or shower sweat off is also crazy.

Meanwhile according to Curtis Sliwa and other late night radio hosts and cops as the whole city goes to hell the stupid mayor visits some same private exclusive gay club near every night.. Arrives after midnight.

There nothing a right wing nut loves more than dirty water. Except maybe for dirty air and noxious fumes.

Bacteria?
Fake news. Just another plot by the globalists and George Soros to take away our freedoms.
