Umfundi wabhala:
Ngizwile ukuthi amanzi aseNew Orleans aphephe amanzi ane-brain-eating amoebas kuwo. Ingabe lokho kuyiqiniso? Ingabe kuphephile ukuphuza noma ukuthatha imvula?
Impendulo emifushane: Cha, ayikho i-amoebas yokudla ebuchosheni futhi yebo, amanzi aphephile . Izivakashi zaseNew Orleans kumele ngokujwayelekile zinganqikazi ukuphuza ngokukhululekile amanzi okupompi, ukugibela emachibini, nokugeza emanzini.
Njalo kanye ngesinye isikhathi, njengokuthi yonke indawo, kwenzeka okuthile.
NgoJulayi ka-2015, ukubiza isibonelo samuva kodwa esingavamile, ukuqhutshwa kwamandla ezindaweni zokuphanga ezimbili zomuzi kubangele ukucindezeleka kwamanzi okuholele ekuholeni amanzi kwamanzi amaningi eNew Orleans. Kwaphela ezinsukwini ezimbalwa kamuva lapho izivivinyo zibuya zacaca ngezinkinga ngamanzi.
Ngalesi sikhathi, abantu - bobabili bendawo kanye nezivakashi - banconywa ukuba basebenzise amanzi amabhodlela ukuphuza, ukuxubha amazinyo, ngisho nokugeza. Iningi lamahhotela lanikeza amanzi izivakashi, futhi kusobala ukuthi amanzi engeziwe angathengwa ngefomu ebhodini kunoma yiliphi inani lezinto zokudla, ama-pharmacy kanye nezitolo ezisebenzayo.
Uma into enjalo ingenzeka ngenkathi uhlala eholidini eNew Orleans , uzokwaziswa ngokushesha ngakho ngabasebenzi bakho behhotela noma emabhedeni asebhedlele nasekuseni, futhi cishe bazosiza ngezidingo zokukwenza ukhululeke ngokwengeziwe.
Uma uhlala ku-AirBnB noma kwenye indawo yokuqashiswa yesikhashana esingekho emthethweni, ungase ubheke izinto ngokwakho, kuye ngokuthi umphathi wakho.
Ukuhlola i-NOLA.com noma omunye umthombo wezindaba wendawo ekuseni cishe umqondo omuhle, uma kunjalo - iseluleko se-abiil-water asinakwenzeka, kodwa kungenzeka kube nezinye izindaba ezifanele ukuthi uzozifuna ukuzilandelela.
Ngakho-ke ngaleyo nto ye-amoeba ... yebo, njalo kanye ngesinye isikhathi, ngokuvamile ehlobo, amanye ama-parish amancane (iLouis Louisiana kulokho okunye okushiwo izifunda zokubiza) ezungeze eNew Orleans (hhayi idolobha elifanele) izoba nenkinga.
Ngezinye izikhathi ama-bacteria amaningi emithonjeni yamanzi ayinkinga, kodwa i-amoeba ethile ebizwa ngokuthi "i-Naegleria fowleri" iyinhloko yecala.
Le amoeba ingaholela enhlobonhlobo ebulalayo ye-encephalitis uma ingenwa ngezono. Amacala amaningi ahilelekile abantu (ngokuvamile izingane) ukufaka amanzi emakhaleni ngenkathi bebhukuda, nakuba ukusetshenziswa kwe-neti kubhekene nokufa kwabantu abaningi eLouisana.
Ukuphinda futhi, ngokuvamile, akuyona inkinga (futhi akunakwenzeka ukuthi izivakashi eziningi zihlala emaaphandleni asemaphandleni asezindaweni zasemaphandleni lapho kutholakala khona amanzi), futhi izakhamuzi zalawo maphaseti zingaphuza ngisho namanzi ngaphandle kokukhathazeka. Uma kukhona ukweluleka futhi kwenzeka ukuthi uhlale kwenye yalezi zindawo, uzokwaziswa ngehhotela lakho.
Kodwa-ke, uMnyango wezeMpilo waseLouisana kanye nezibhedlela uyasikisela ukuthi, ngezizathu zokuqapha, noma ubani osebenzisa i-neti pot noma ngabe yikuphi esifundazweni kufanele asebenzise amanzi aphekiwe (futhi ahlile, ecacile) noma ahlanzekile ngaleyo njongo. Ngakho-ke uma uhlala eholidini futhi uhlale ubhekene netiza njalo, thatha i-jug yamanzi acwecwekile ukuba ube ohlangothini oluphephile. (Lokhu empeleni kuyinconywa yonke indawo, kodwa kuyiqiniso ikakhulukazi eLouisana.)
