Poo Parasite in the Pool

An article from a Nevada newspaper talks about how seven people have been sickened from a mysterious parasite. As far as experts can tell, the parasite is infecting people who have been swimming in pools. What I found interesting is the below quote from the article:

"When people go swimming in a pool and they have cryptosporidiosis and they have a diarrheal accident in the pool, they have basically exposed anybody who goes into the pool afterward," Davis said.

WHAT? Does this really happen? I saw that YouTube video where the girl has diarhea in the hot tub, but that seemed staged. I wonder if she had the bug.

You've been warned. Oh, and don't even think about pooing in my pool.
