Health Ministry Warns Against Submerging Heads in Sea of Galilee
The Ministry of Health issued a warning on Sunday advising swimmers in the Sea of Galilee to avoid submerging their heads underwater and refrain from diving. The ministry recommended placing signs around the lake to alert the public to the danger posed by an amoeba.
Swimmers were also advised to use nose plugs to prevent water from entering their nasal passages. The warning comes amid concerns about the potential presence of a dangerous amoeba in the water, which can cause serious illness if it enters the body through the nose or mouth.
