Apparently the article states that the river failed E. Coli testing after heavy rainfalls, with levels detected 10 times the acceptable count.
This honestly just seems like a failure of the administration to properly take care of the athletes and wanting to go ahead with “a historic river race”.
I don’t know why all the teams don’t just refuse to take part in any event in the Seine.
It is the same as any open water, or what do you base your rating on?

Except it does not continuously fail. You can check meseurements here : https://www.paris.fr/pages/meteo-de-la-seine-quelle-est-la-qualite-de-l-eau-du-fleuve-27467 Water is tested multiple time a day and we can see that water was at acceptable level the days of competition

They could have delayed or re-tested.
Olympics or not, they swam through a river of shit.
