shinmin...54F doctor from Raffles Medical Group, suddenly died of pneumonia.....

[Mr.Chibaboom]

Doctors face different kind of viruses in hospital settings so sometimes they might contract viruses , bacteria some new or very strong and pass them on their family members and cause death so it's hard to say.

That's why in life everything is unexpected.

Rare to die from pneumonia
Diane Keaton too
RIP

because its not just "pneumonia"

its actually COVID because that opens the door for pneumonia to set in.

mainstream media are instructed not to use the term COVID when reporting such news.

Mmm... Her immune system likely weakened by viral infection which lead to severe pneumonia. Ah gong oso uplorried to the same illness...

 

[Checkyrmed]

Also, having low cholesterol levels can make you more susceptible to infections and pneumonia.

I tio pneumonia in year 1998. I was in the ICU for 9 days. At the normal ward before going to ICU, i remember 10 doctors surround my bed to give me treatment and i fainted a lot of times. basically fightning for my life. after i recovered, doctor told me i'm the third person in record to have infected with pneumonia. before me got 2 person, both up lorry.

More and more microbes have developed resistance to antibiotics.

At the same time, insulin resistance is closely linked to a higher risk of pneumonia and often results in more severe illness and slower recovery.

Statins, can further increase the risk of insulin resistance, where both metabolic and infectious vulnerabilities rise together.

Don't just give such blanket advice.

People with hypercholesterolemia must take the meds.

And there are other non statin options.

Did you have other medical conditions? How old were you?

I do not have any other medical conditions. I was 19 years old at that point of time. Almost KO.
