Algoma Public Health has issued a swimming advisory for Sellers Park Beach located in Blind River.
The agency states water samples taken on July 12th contained high levels of bacteria and when sample results return to safe levels, the advisory will be removed.
The health unit adds swimming in water with high levels of bacteria can cause skin, eye, nose and throat infections, as well as stomach illness if water is swallowed.
