A woman who showed cold and flu symptoms died within weeks - after she developed sepsis and Strep A. Bethannie Booth started feeling ill at the start of March - but initially it did not seem too serious.
However she began to deteriorate quickly and the 24-year-old from Wales was taken to Royal Glamorgan Hospital after struggling to breathe. Her condition had become grave and after arriving she was taken to intensive care.
The primary school worker suffered a collapsed lung due to the Strep A infection and died on the last day of March, WalesOnline reports. Her dad Wayne said: “I have only one way I can explain Beth – imagine the best female has got the biggest angel wings, who would do anything for anyone, from a man living on the streets to a man in a mansion.
