Alertă în Mexic: Amiba „mâncătoare de creier”, descoperită în Yucatan. Șase lacuri au fost închise

Mexican authorities reported the presence of the brain-eating amoeba in six artificial lakes in Yucatan, leading to their closure. This follows the death of a water ski instructor who contracted Naegleria fowleri. Health officials analyzed the lakes after the incident, emphasizing the need for preventive measures. The amoeba thrives in warm, stagnant freshwater and can cause severe infections, although they are rare. The Yucatan government is investigating the companies responsible for water quality in the affected lakes.
