Brain-eating amoeba detected in south Bossier Parish water system

South Bossier Parish residents near Sligo Road could have been exposed to brain-eating amoebas.

Tests by the Louisiana Department and of Health and Hospitals at the Sligo Water System were positive for naegleria fowleri, a type of amoeba that can be fatal if it enters a person's brain.

. . .

As a result of this sample, the water system will be performing a 60 day “chlorine burn”, where the residual chlorine will be maintained at somewhat higher levels than normal. The chlorine level required by the Department of Health is safe for consumption.

This illness just isn't doing it right if it wants to kill everyone. If I learned anything from playing Plague Inc, is that you might sure to infect everyone BEFORE evolving deadly symptoms.

I personally fell like I didn't dodge fast enough. And this being Monday has nothing to do with it.
