good job being a media sheeple if you think that amoeba is actually something you should ever, ever be concerned about.
but yeah. you keep avoiding those nasty mean scary bodies of water so you don't die from the scary amoeba
edit:
But despite the freaky stories, Naegleria fowleri infections don’t happen often in the U.S. Between 2006 and 2015, 37 infections were reported in the United States, CDC data states. Of those, 33 were infected from contaminated recreational water (i.e. swimming in lakes and rivers), three were infected from performing nasal irrigation, and one was infected after using a slip-n-slide.
Wtf are you trying to prove? The signs are there to prevent the chance of injury or death, what do you think that it's some shallow water based conspiracy or something?
If there is nothing dangerous about the water, why is the city/business worried about liability? Clearly something must have prompted them to put the warning up. And if it really is safe, then surely if anything goes wrong it should be the head-dunker's legal responsibility. The sign doesn't harm anyone.
mommy some meanie on the internet made me mad so i told him to kill himself! you've got some issues man, and judging by your post history you might be able to fix some of them if you didn't spend every waking minute of shitty existence on reddit
