In water polo, it’s only a 20 second exclusion.

My daughter played horse polo in college.
Some of my academy mates played water polo.
When I was young we had canceled school because of polio.

The kids I knew who had polio were 'self quarantined' ... My sister's best friend came down with it when we were kids and my sister would stand outside her friend's house (back into the yard) and they would yell to each other to maintain the friendship. The girl died... I think she was around ten years old.
