Kozhikode, 19 Aug
Health officials said on Tuesday that an amoeba was found in
the well water at the residence of a nine-year-old girl who died last week due
to amoebic encephalitis, a rare brain infection, in this north Kerala district.
A senior health official of the district said that following
the detection of the amoeba, a fever survey was carried out among all those who
used the water from the well.
Following the survey, the deceased girl's brother is presently under observation as he had a fever. However, he has not shown any other symptoms associated with the brain infection, caused by a free-living amoeba found in contaminated waters, the official said.
The girl, a resident of Thamarassery here, was admitted to a
hospital due to fever on 13 August, but as her condition worsened quickly, on the next day, she
was shifted to the Kozhikode medical college, where she died the
same day.
A test carried out at the microbiology lab of the medical
college revealed on 15 August night that the cause of her death was amoebic
encephalitis.
It was probably the fourth case of the rare brain infection
reported from the district this year, according to health officials.
