The Fraser Health authority has ordered the closure of the mineral pools at Harrison Hot Springs Resort after two reports of people getting a rash after using the pools. According to Fraser Health spokesperson Dixon Tam, one case goes back to January, while the second happened this month. CBC News attempted to contact Harrison Hot Springs Resort for a comment about the closures. On its website, the resort posted a brief advisory for guests, saying all five mineral pools were closed by Fraser Health until Monday, Feb. 25. According the Fraser Health, the closure will continue "until we feel it's safe for the public to use the mineral pools."
