Apparently there's a particularly virulent strain of pneumonia going around that has a bacterial and a viral component. Doctors are treating one and not realizing the other is there. By the time it's recognized the person is in a critical infected stage if not all out sepsis.

Yeah, he was an Oxford High graduate. From all accounts he had a really bright future in the business. So sad.

Always enjoyed his articles. RIP.

A guy that worked for me had this last year. 25 year old extremely fit and healthy person. Spent weeks in a medically induced coma. Stayed in hospital for about 2 months and missed several months of work. Terrible stuff.

Get the pneumonia vaccine, I have mine.
Praise The Lord and Go Dawgs!!!

The pneumonia vaccine is only for people over 60 or 65 I think. He probably had the unfortunate luck of getting some weird atypical bacteria/viral strain that doesn't respond to the usual antibiotics. Or he became septic or had some other rare complication (encephalitis).
