The 1.5-year-old child died in Volos from septicemia, which caused multi-organ failure. He was rushed to the Pediatric Clinic of the Volos hospital at noon with a high fever and died a few minutes later.

“The child had fever for five days as we were informed. We did everything possible and what happened is unsurpassed. He had no pulse and his clinical picture showed us severe septicemia,” doctors told Gegonota.

“The tests will show us the germ and we still can’t say anything,” they added.

As they explained, the microbe made a localized infection that spread and affected vital organs. As it turned out, the child had a high fever as did his twin brother, but neither had a serious medical history.

The child, who “passed” in resuscitation, was taken to the hospital in serious condition.

Doctors immediately decided to intubate him. Efforts were made to keep it alive, but the infant eventually died.
