Description
Brent Bellinger and representative from Austin Public Health spoke with individual about subsequent illness of wife after gulping water while swimming in Barton creek and Barton Springs pool. Wife received medical treatment and was discharged. We discussed possible short- and long- term effects if it was a cyanotoxin exposure; however, it is unclear the true cause of the symptoms as it rained before site observation could occur.
