Shingles

my concern is the shingle virus in a swimming pool would the virus be in the water if someone went in with a blister and if so how long would it remain in the water?
thanks

If the pool is properly chlorinated there should not be a risk of contagion.

Could not spread the love Amy, but that is what I was thinking. Chlorine is very similar in chamical makeup to bleach. This should neutralize if not kill the virus.
