What's the big deal? You have to get the water up your nose in order for it to go to the brain. I read about it after a child died of it in Florida I think it was. Got it at a water park IIRC.

No regulators were hurt by the microbes...there are none in Texas.

Brazoria County (Dow Chemical) is famous for two things; petrochemicals and prisons.

So drinking the water isn't the issue but taking a bath in it is? I feel so much better now.

There's no such thing as "brain eating amœba" — it's the whole kit and kaboodle of cleanliness-obsessed Catholic nuns screaming from here to kingdom come about a little sand or grit in the tap water — and oh, by the way there's a graded and inspected restaurant where they serve something to eat and drink so you don't have to worry about the quality of the water in your own home.

Have they not heard of Chlorine?

Sure they have....but it's expensive and corners need to be cut so the Ivory tower can get new Furniture (again, this year)
(Only those who work at a City Hall will get it)

That's what I thought, "naegleria fowleria" just sounds like a scientific term for
"Negative Followers" aka doom and gloomers

It's not expensive, I have used it in my swimming pool.

That's somewhat unsettling...

Brain-eating amoeba detected in Texas?

Not likely – they’d starve.
