Notice From Dr’s Regarding Kiddie Pools

May 7, 2009 2:17 pm

Notice. As the summer days are approaching, it was suggested we post this notice, which was printed in this weeks Bp. Dr. Shanik, Dr. Nochum Indich, Dr. Neal Gittleman and Dr. Harvey Hirsh have issued the following notice: Due to the increased risk of spreading Pinworms, Shigella, CMV (Cytomegalovirus), and stomach viruses, kiddie pools should not be used for playgroups, day camps or shared amongst neighbors. Sprinklers would be a good alternative.
