What happened: A 19 year old student had to get both of his legs and ten fingers amputated after eating leftover food and noodles from his fridge. A YouTuber and doctor by profession, Bernard Hsu, posted a video revealing the New England Journal of Medicine case. Independent.UK quotes the development as, “A patient was admitted to the pediatric ICU because of shock, multiple organ failure and rash.” At the same time, the YouTube video revealed, “The teen’s pain started shortly after he ate rice, chicken and noodles leftovers from a restaurant in his fridge.” Details: Subsequently, after eating the leftover food, the patient experienced high fever and blood pressure before he vomited a green-ish yellow color. However, as his health deteriorated, the 19 year old was shifted to another hospital in a helicopter and, “JC was diagnosed with neisseria meningitidis, which caused his stiff neck, nausea, respiratory collapse and shock .” More: On the other hand, as the infections on the patient’s body increased, he had to get his fingers and legs amputated. However, the doctors claimed that the leftover food caused the infection and disease and he had not received his Serogroup B meningococcal vaccine at the age of 16.
