Naegleria Fowleri is a microscopic amoeba that is frequently found around the world and the United States in warm freshwater – lakes, rivers, hot springs, and streams – and soil. It can cause a rare and serious infection of the brain called primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM). According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the risk of Naegleria Fowleri infection is very low. However those who enjoy recreational waters should be aware that there will always be a very low level risk of infection. Please visit the CDC’s website for more information about Naegleria Fowleri and ways to reduce the likelihood of contracting PAM.
