H1N1 flu victim that nearly died is back home in Arlington

ARLINGTON -- A woman who could barely stand and was within "one day of death," according to her doctors, is miraculously back at home in Arlington.

Julie Shelley was taken to the emergency room at JPS Hospital just before Christmas day.

"Doctors said a day later it would've been too late, because then I would have turned septic," she said.

H1N1 flu victim that nearly died is back home in Arlington

ARLINGTON -- A woman who could barely stand and was within "one day of death," according to her doctors, is miraculously back at home in Arlington.

Julie Shelley was taken to the emergency room at JPS Hospital just before Christmas day.

"Doctors said a day later it would've been too late, because then I would have turned septic," she said.


http://www.wfaa.com/news/local/H1N1-victim-that-nearly-died-starts--242866981.html

We can be thankful that this woman is living.

We cannot be thankful for the unscientific, but conveniently self-congratulatory, response of the medical team telling her that one more day would have been too late. Did they compare her viral load at certain tissue types against known viral loads of fatal cases in a matched cohort with known symptom onset date and known medical care seeking date? Was she specifically one day earlier than those matched to her who had died or was the statement pure managed messaging?

Did the HCW/PH spokesperson just issue the back-patting statement from rote? Seems that we've also repeatedly heard the inverse blaming of the victim upon a death attended in a medical facility, "If she had only come one day earlier, she would be alive today." Again without empirical basis.

How many have we seen that sought medical care, some multiple times, and were sent home to either die or to die upon returning for a final medical request? Seeking medical care is not a guarantee of survival, nor should that position be stated by rote unless evidence is at hand.

Eighth flu-related death reported in Tarrant County

While a series of influenza cases continues to drop, Tarrant County has reported a eighth flu-related death.

Six of a deaths tested certain for Type A influenza, though two, including a latest one, tested certain for Type B.

Type B typically doesn?t means widespread outbreaks like Type A, and it?s mostly found in places such as schools and nursing homes, pronounced Russ Jones, arch epidemiologist for Tarrant County Public Health.

H1N1, a widespread aria this year, is a Type A strain.

Monitor
or
Control and Prevent

As of today, 2014-02-01, neither the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or independent labs in the State of Texas have published a single genetic sequence sampled during or after that peaking period of the High Intensity genetics.

Citizens have been blinded and cast adrift by public health leaders to face this storm of record-setting fatality that continues to destroy the lives of healthy, vaccinated adults and children.

While we and other citizens do recognise the monitoring effort, a touch of controlling and preventing would be beneficial as well.
