HOW IS THE BRAIN EATING AMOBE TRANSMITTED?

Also known as the “brain-eating amoeba,” Naegleria fowleri infects stagnant waters such as muddy water, lakes and swimming pools. The micro-scale, single-celled Naegleria fowleri enters the human body through the nose, causing an infection in the brain and often fatal. The amoeba, which is mostly found in fresh waters such as lakes, rivers and canals, does not pass from person to person. Since Naegleria fowleri is a heat-loving amoeba, it is known that an increase in cases is expected due to global warming.
