OA:2. will negation of option 2 be Humans not often become ill as a result of eating mackerel with fungal infections.

The Spanish mackerel and other commonly eaten fish are at a higher risk of contracting fungal infection when industrial effluents contaminate their water. A proposal has been put forth to reroute offshore, gallons of industrial effluents every day. Although this would substantially reduce the amount of effluents in the water bodies where mackerel are caught, the proposal is pointless, because hardly any mackerels live long enough to be harmed by these infections.

  1. Contaminants in the water other than industrial effluents are equally harmful to mackerel.
  2. Humans often become ill as a result of eating mackerel with fungal infections.
  3. Mackerel, like other fresh-water fish, live longer in the isolated lakes than in water bodies close to industrialized land.
  4. Mackerel breed as readily in effluent-contaminated water as in unpolluted water.
  5. Fungal infections cannot be detected by examining the surface skin or scales of the fish.

Thank you. Will do that from now on. Understood the explanation, but can you help me on  how option2  can be negated in this case and how does that  change the conclusion?
