🚨 Health Awareness | Naegleria Fowleri
Small Amoeba. Big Risk. ⚠️
Naegleria fowleri is a rare amoeba found in warm freshwater that can cause a serious brain infection if contaminated water enters the nose.
As summer temperatures rise, it is important to take simple precautions:
💧 Avoid swimming or diving in warm, untreated freshwater.
👃 Keep your nose closed or use a nose clip.
🚰 Use only distilled, sterile, or properly boiled and cooled water for nasal rinsing.
🏊♂️ Prefer properly maintained and disinfected swimming pools.
📢 Follow local water-safety advisories.
Remember: It does not spread from person to person, and swallowing contaminated water does not cause this infection.
If possible exposure is followed by severe headache, fever, vomiting, stiff neck, confusion, or worsening neurological symptoms, seek urgent medical care.
Your health is your greatest investment. Stay informed. Stay safe.
