    Snippet: This study had several limitations. First, selection bias could potentially occur. The initial investigation was performed on all students and teachers who had been using the swimming pool. But for the students and teachers who did not use the pool, the investigation was performed only on those who showed symptoms of the respiratory infection on the prospective surveillance.

    Document: This study had several limitations. First, selection bias could potentially occur. The initial investigation was performed on all students and teachers who had been using the swimming pool. But for the students and teachers who did not use the pool, the investigation was performed only on those who showed symptoms of the respiratory infection on the prospective surveillance. Thus, there is a possibility that a thorough investigation has not been conducted on non-users of the swimming pool. Second, there is a possibility of information bias because the epidemiological investigation started about 1 month after the outbreak. In order to minimize the bias, face-to-face interviews were conducted for a considerable amount of time. In cases of hospital admission, medical records were investigated. Third, there is a possibility of misclassification, because the possibility of infection from other pathogens among the initial suspected case could not be excluded.
