Normally, you can swim in water up to shock level. But your water is not normal.
In your case I would not advise swimming because you have no stabilizer (CYA) in the water. Therefore the amount of hypochlorous acid present in the water (the stuff that kills algae and oxidizes organics) is extraordinarily high.
You should wait until the baquacil to chlorine conversion is complete and when you actually get stabilizer in the water. Then the CYA will buffer the chlorine and keep the hypochlorous acid level down to reasonable levels.
