Mercers, or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), can potentially be transmitted in a pool if the conditions are right, such as open cuts or wounds on the skin of swimmers. While the chlorine in pool water helps kill many bacteria, it is not foolproof, particularly if the pool is not well-maintained. Close contact with infected individuals or contaminated surfaces can also facilitate transmission. Therefore, maintaining good hygiene practices and avoiding swimming with open wounds are essential for preventing the spread of MRSA in pool settings.
