[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anyone worried about brain amoeba? I have a new thing to be paranoid about![/quote] No, you do not have to be worried about brain amoeba after Labor Day. This amoeba only grows when there is an extended period of really hot weather. That is not a problem during this time of the year. In fact most of the cases are a lot further South. There was one case in VA, but that again was during a long period of hot weather. Calm down, it's ok. I used to be a whitewater kayaker and was in lots and lots of rivers. Rolling my kayaking, sometimes swimming when my roll didn't work. Never had a problem. Was in the Potomac, Shenandoah, Lower Yough, etc. No worries. It is just hard to go lake swimming after Labor Day because all of the college kids are back at school, so they don't open the beaches.[/quote] It has been and will continue to be in the 90s the next few weeks.
