To Dark Soul: If the reports are accurate Americans are the only tourists that drink and swim in hotel pools.
The CDC and the FBI are reportedly investigating the matter, but Flowers has theories of his own. “The common thread with everybody that did get sick is that they swam in the swim-up bar pool and/or they had a drink from the swim-up bar,” Flowers said. “So it could be related to that pool.”
In fact, I have not seen one report of tourists from other countries dying or getting sick. On the other hand, Americans could be the only tourists that go to the Dominican Republic!
