A 71-year-old woman in Texas has died after contracting a rare brain-eating amoeba called Naegleria fowleri. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says she likely became infected through her RV’s water system while using non-boiled tap water for a sinus rinse. The infection led to severe symptoms, including high fevers, altered mental states, and seizures before ultimately causing her death.
