And sepsis itself is not a disease. It's the endgame of an infection.

My folks both died of sepsis, mostly because doctors wouldn't listen to their complaints. Mom's was a rip-roaring bladder infection & dad's guts burst after wks of complaints of abdominal pain while IN the hospital. I'm a nurse-knew what was going on. They wouldn't listen.

My grandfather died from sepsis and my wife barely survived septic shock. I’ve heard of it. Try “1 in 5 deaths caused by a disease that deserves more attention”. Boom - audience no longer insulted.

Oh, I've heard of it. My wife passed away suddenly in the hospital last year & that was listed as the cause of death. I asked the doctors how that was possible when they had her on IV antibiotics & they basically said, 'There was nothing we could do.' It was quite a blow.

We got medical! Know what to do with it!

Way to insult your audience.

Amazingly people only come to know after the death. Makes your wonder what do doctors ..scientists really study

Sepsis is not really unknown.

This is fear porn.

This a stupid headline for a silly article.

HOW can you generalize & say no one has heard of this? My dad died from this...he was doing GREAT after a stem cell transplant then got multiple staph infections while recovering at emoryhealthcare & then sepsis. Please stop with these condescending headlines.

People die everyday Hebrews 9:27 How we die is sometime a mystery 0-99 or above We dont know when but being ready is up to Us Not wanting to go today BUT IF IT IS I'm as ready as I ever will be

Hm, okay, didn't know that ABC News followers are that damn uneducated.

Because people call it blood poisoning or say 'the pneumonia shut down her organs'. No those things are both actually sepsis!

Can I say never heard of cuz you just talked about it

Which Pharma company is paying for this headline click-bait?

People haven't heard of sepsis before? My D&D character lost her arm due to it hahaha

I've heard of it. I also personally know people who narrowly escaped dying from it!

IMSUNNY

Nonsense. Stop it.

bansepsis

I’ve heard of it maybe YOU haven’t however 🤔

People haven't heard of sepsis?

What dopes have never heard of sepsis

So how do they cure it?

😲

Right up there With Mersa!!!!

Umm the infection is as OLD AS THE HILLS if not older. Yeah we've heard of it.

Except I have heard of it?

flow45351894 Yes. I developed it in the hospital. My heart stopped. Sepsis cannot be gotten rid of.

'a disorder of structure or function in a human, animal, or plant, especially one that produces specific symptoms or that affects a specific location and is not simply a direct result of physical injury.'

Who hasn't heard of sepsis? 🤦🏻‍♀️

This article needs some help, it's not exactly accurate or informative. Sepsis is not always fatal if noticed and treated immediately. If you write about it, you should really include the signs/symptoms so people recognize it quickly.

Who hasn't heard of sepsis?

Delete this tweet!

LOL, 'disease'? Really? Obviously YOU have never heard of sepsis! It's NOT a disease, it is the body's natural response to infections. .

I think a lot of people have heard of sepsis and you can’t actually call sepsis a cause of death - it’s a infection so you have to name the type of infection that causes the sepsis. clickbait

OMG, l've heard of SEPSIS!!!!

Stopped reading after first few sentences when you don't know infection from disease.

Uh, Trump supporters maybe not. The rest of us are fairly educated and have heard of it.

Not a disease! I worked with a man back in 1972.. he cut his hand on Saturday doing some woodwork..by Monday he was dead...

Don't have surgery in dirty hospitals!

Sepsis is not a disease, it is a condition. It occurs when chemicals released in the bloodstream to fight an infection trigger inflammation throughout the body. In extreme cases, it can cause organ failure or even death.

many of us have heard of sepsis. Why do you assume your audience is stupid?

Usually because of chemical food we eat. Our body cannot accept them. Chemical flavours, chemical colours, Chemical preservatives, Aspartames, etc. Many hormons injected to broiler chickens. Man made chemical food replacing God made.natures

Sepsis isn't a disease. Sepsis is an infection that spreads throughout the whole body.

Coincidentally, I'm hearing more about this and can't help but wonder which of the big pharma companies is going to corner the market first.Greed

We've never heard of? How old or ignorant you think we are?

You're ruining the secret,

Don’t insult my intelligence

Let me guess Sepsis.

So sad ...🙁☹️
