But you could safely say that most doctors will never see a case.Which means that it is probably underdiagnosed (if that is a word).
Probably. But it would get picked up in the post mortem autopsy.
You are not going to miss a bunch of ameba swimming around in brain matter under a microscope. They are way bigger than brain cells.

It can be found in tap water too. There was a case a few years ago caused by a neti pot. I think I read about a case a few weeks ago.
They recommend distilled water in neti pots.

Agreed. I conclude it is usually difficult to know if it is due to lack of scholarship or done by conscious intent.

Who, What, Why, Where, When, and How
If the MSM (uranilists) told us this, the news bite would be over in seconds.
Otherwise, it takes 29 minutes and a plethora of commercials to get to just one lonely fact.

Not trying to be stupidly funny about but the first thought to me was this sounds like a democratic disease.

There are between 0 and 8 cases of this per year.
It is indeed rare (fortunately) considering how many people are in contact with warm water in the summer time.
Millions upon millions swim in fresh water ponds, lakes, streams and rivers every summer... and in a bad year less than 2 handfuls of people contract this. Its INCREDIBLY rare.... sadly it is usually fatal if you get it, but it is indeed INCREDIBLY RARE.
