Chlorine kills viruses Chlorine is the most commonly used disinfectant in public and private pools, and for good reason. It has a long history of successfully killing viruses in the water, including SARS, another type of coronavirus. The CDC says, similarly, that "proper operation and disinfection of pools, hot tubs, and water playgrounds should kill the virus that causes COVID-19."
