From the article, it seems all people really have to do to avoid it is not swim in ponds and such, and keep your pool clean. Not as scary as the article portrays it, although an increase from an average of 2.5 a year to 6 is a rather large increase percentage-wise, it's still only 6 people in an entire year.

Article makes me want to throw it all out of my stomach.

I tend to have a habit...of imagining pain...even broken bones have me feel like vomiting.

This is definitely new news to me. A lot of new diseases have been discovered in the last 10 or so years (or there have at least been big outbreaks in them).

Something's gonna kill you eventually. Might as well not think on it too much.

The amoeba typically live in lake bottoms, grazing off algae and bacteria in the sediment. Beach said people become infected when they wade through shallow water and stir up the bottom. If someone allows water to shoot up the nose -- say, by doing a cannonball off a cliff -- the amoeba can latch onto the person's olfactory nerve.

Why haven't I been infected? Or any of my friends? Fresh, clean waters of Finland FTW...

See, this is why people should listen to George Carlin more often. :\ Now we're on 'You're All Diseased' and before it was 'Back in Town'...

I'll just say "it should be more slug-like and go in the ears", but the total number of people who'll get this obscure refrence will probably total one at most.

Argh I get it but I don't at the same time. D=

Also, I don't swim often, nor do I go outside much, so I won't die from this. Probably from something unexpected, but hey, whatever.
