Though no cases of coronavirus transmission via swimming have been confirmed, many public pools remain off limits to public use, leading to overcrowding at many of the city’s most visited spots. Hong Kong’s swimming community was shocked and dismayed at these closures, especially given the high concentration of competitive swimmers as well as millions more who swim for fitness or leisure purposes. Closures will have an extremely detrimental impact on the United Kingdom’s renowned swimming system which trains over 10,000 athletes annually. Some pools have opened recently while others remain shut. The Amateur Swimming Association of Hong Kong has already expressed concern that this will have a devastating impact on Olympic hopefuls in Hong Kong in future.
