Granulomatous amoebic encephalitis primary prevention

Overview
Granulomatous amoebic encephalitis is a central nervous system disease caused by certain species of amoeba, especially Balamuthia mandrillaris.

Prevention
Currently, there are no known ways to prevent infection with Balamuthia since it is unclear how and why some people become  infected while others do not.

There have been no reports of a Balamuthia infection spreading from one person to another except through organ donation/transplantation.
