  Wtf are we supposed to do in Florida now
context: This amoeba only infects through the olfactory receptors in the nose, making ingestion a practically impossible method of infection, as the amoeba would have to travel through the nasopharynx all the way to the olfactory receptors for no reason and then invade. This amoeba is not specialized for pathogenicity, and is only able to infect the brain tissue. There needs to be a sufficiently warm freshwater pool that is infected, and you have to get water so far up your nose that amoeba bump into your olfactory bulb. This is why cases are extremely rare. >
  
  No aggressively snorting random lake water, got it. Thank you for this info! Makes me and my single brain cell feel better
