A promising singer and trained architect, identified as a rising star, tragically passed away after a venomous snake bite. Friends recount that she was asleep when the bite occurred, waking her and initiating a desperate search for medical attention.
Initial attempts to treat her at a local clinic proved futile as they lacked the necessary antivenom. Subsequently, she was transferred to a hospital, where, according to friends, only one of the required antivenoms was available. Despite efforts to stabilize her, her breathing became labored.
The hospital has since refuted claims of inadequate response, asserting that medical staff provided immediate and appropriate treatment, including resuscitation and the administration of polyvalent snake antivenom. They stated that a thorough assessment revealed severe complications from the bite.
