May 22 is Harvey Milk Day 🏳️‍🌈 Harvey Milk Day is organized by the Harvey Milk Foundation and celebrated each year on May 22, especially in California, in memory of Harvey Milk, a gay rights activist who was assassinated in 1978. Milk was a prominent gay activist during the 20th century. He ran for office three times before becoming the first openly gay person elected to California public office, where he served as a San Francisco city supervisor. Harvey Milk Day came about as a day to remember and teach about Milk’s life and his work to stop discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community.

Lake Mead contains a dangerous amoeba, according to results of a study published recently by the American Chemical Society. If taken in through the nasal cavity, the organism, Naegleria fowleri, can lead to brain inflammation and even death.

Between 2016 and 2024, researchers from multiple agencies collected and analyzed samples at sites including Lake Mead and four other national parks and recreation areas. Lake Mead, Yellowstone National Park, and Grand Teton National Park tested positive for the amoeba.

Hot springs feeding into Lake Mead from upstream may be the source of the organism, since it thrives in warm waters. Nevada reported one death from the inflammation at Ash Springs and one at Lake Mead during the period studied. Researchers are encouraging public officials to enhance monitoring, public awareness, and risk management in warm-water recreation areas.
