A high percentage of children who died developed secondary bacterial infections.
Jeff said this occurs because of a weakened immune system.
Dr. Niman then said this could be due to immunological reasons.
But, he also said that there could be this barrier.
We normally harbour bacteria and they do not cause problems till they get dislodged through sore throats and coughing.
The dislodged bacteria could end up in the lungs where they normally aren't. They take-off there. They also get into the heart.
They get to the internal organs.
These bacteria include MRSA which has been involved with some of the deaths. This bacteria does not respond to antibiotics.
You get a syndrome.
You get into problems where it just keeps getting worst.
...
This virus attacks the body. It basically spreads in the lungs. It goes to the heart. And, the immune system basically starts destroying healthy cells. That leads to all kinds of, a cascade effect, and cytokine storm. And, basically the patient dies.
