Leticia Paul, a 22-year-old law graduate from Lontras, Brazil, has passed away under harrowing and unexpected circumstances in less than 24 hours after undergoing a routine CT scan: a medical procedure she had previously undergone without any complications.
This time, however, the outcome was catastrophic, as the procedure caused her to have a lethal allergic reaction.
The tragedy has left her family reeling and a community in mourning, as police launch an investigation into the hospital’s conduct and the rare incident that ended the young woman’s life.
