Popular California lake remains open despite exceedingly high E.coli levels
Briefly

Recently, high levels of E.coli found in Avocado Lake's waters have led health officials to advise against swimming, despite the state of the lake being open.
Though most E.coli strains are harmless, exceeding the recommended safety threshold poses significant health risks, especially to vulnerable populations like children and the elderly.
The concentrations of E.coli at the lake have been concerning, with past spikes recorded earlier in the summer, raising alarm over recurring water quality issues.
While Avocado Lake is a family destination, health officials stress caution and the importance of monitoring water quality to prevent health risks associated with high bacteria levels.
