People always warn about this but don’t understand it. It’s like saying be careful driving your car, you may get in a wreck. Or hey be careful don’t eat undercooked meat.
There are so few cases of this annually and as someone who lives in Asia and has eaten a lot of rice I think the warning is overblown.

The pathogenic bacteria can survive boiling: bad for us.
Infections seem rare: better.
Counterpoint anecdata: I had Giardia once, and that's a month I never want to repeat. Ever. (survives boiling; isn't super common)

in most cases it's not like "not getting involved in an accident". there are things you can do to avoid egregious cases.
