I live in France where we don't have brain eating amoebae in the tap water.
You doesn't inject the water, you just clean out shit that is overwhelming the system, safety wise it's like gargling water if you don't over do it.
I mean if you do live where there are brain eating things in the drinking water, yeah do buy sterile water and proceed accordingly for sure.
Fascinating. I had assumed it was everywhere but I looked it up and it does seem pretty rare globally. It has caused illness in countries nearby you though so be careful traveling :)
