<description>Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Will this filter leptospirea that causes leptospirosis?  Apparently this is a bacteria found on the north side of Kauai in fresh water streams.  Blogs are saying filters don&#x27;t work...seems like 0.2 microns should filter a bacteria, right?</description>
