If look at the total number of cases compaered to the number of people who swim in that water. You probably have a better chance of dying in a fiery car crash on the way there. my .02 They say the FLU killed over 30,000 people in the US last year alone. what's scarier now? I guess a parasite eating its way to my brain is pretty scary though.
