rabies transmission through chlorinated water is highly unlikely. Rabies is generally transmitted through direct contact with the saliva or brain/nervous tissue of an infected animal, typically via bites or scratches that break the skin. The chlorine in the pool would likely neutralize any virus present, making this scenario an improbable risk for rabies transmission.
However, I would recommend you visit a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation, especially if you are concerned or have any additional symptoms. For a more detailed discussion and treatment, feel free to reach out to me via WhatsApp on eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two.

You should take the past history of the swimming pool before jumping into it. Prevention is better than cure.
