A mystery illness that killed a Texas couple on a dream vacation to Fiji continued to baffle doctors Wednesday as authorities in the South Pacific island nation said they have ruled out one possible cause for their demise -- influenza.
The Health Ministry in Fiji said an investigation into the causes of death is ongoing and that they still have no definitive answers on what killed the seemingly healthy couple. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization are assisting in the investigation. "After reporting feeling unwell, the guests were treated at the local medical facility, where they subsequently passed away," the resort said in a statement."Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of the deceased. As always, the well-being of our guests and associates remains our highest priority. We are working closely with the authorities as they investigate the matter.
"I spoke to a top infectious disease specialist ... who said there is almost no infection that out of the blue can kill two healthy people this quickly," Ashton said."So, again, their symptoms may be a clue. We need a post mortem autopsy and toxicology because when you see two people young and healthy die suddenly, that is really, really suspicious."She said the couple was taken to a clinic but released and went back to their hotel to try to get rest.
That’s awful 😢😭😓

Going out on a limb here, but, I think they ate something that killed them. Probably some kind of local and exotic seafood. Some of those kinds of seafoods have a neuro-toxin that may explain the 'hand numbness' exhibited by them. Just a guess. 🤔
Please god let this be the one! I've been waiting my whole life for it!
I don’t feel a need to leave the United States. People think traveling abroad is something magical. Here’s a news flash: Once you’re outside the United States you’re no longer IN the United States. Are you willing to put your life in the hands of some foreign country?
This sounds like the beginning of a movie. So sad for their families.
And so begins Dasani's controversial marketing ploy to take down Fiji water once and for all.
This is mind boggling & so sad. Hope they find out what happened.
