From Florida's own public health website:
"Only 4 people out of 154 known infected individuals in the United
States from 1962 to 2021 have survived."
<https://www.floridahealth.gov/diseases-and-conditions/primary-amebic-meningoencephalitis/index.html>
Likewise, from the University of Florida:
"Over the past 30 years [1990-2020], there have been 34 deaths recorded
in the United States due to exposure to this nasty little organism.
Fifteen of the deaths occurred in Florida."

Plus there's been more cases in FL since the above was published, including:
2 March 2023: "Case of "brain-eating amoeba" reported in Florida,
possibly linked to sinus rinse with tap water"
<https://www.cbsnews.com/news/brain-eating-amoeba-florida-sinus-rinse-tap-water-charlotte-county/>
6 July 2023: "Florida teenager survives brain-eating amoeba with 97%
fatality rate Caleb Ziegelbaur, 14, was given four days to live when he
was rushed to the emergency room in July 2022, his mother said."

Just shows that you don't know what's happening in your own back yard:
go touch grass instead of keyboard.
