About that man in Germany who died from bacteria transmitted by a dog's lick.
I'm noticing something in "A healthy man was licked by his dog. He was dead within weeks" (by Lateshia Beachum in The Washington Post). My first question was: Where did this happen? I get my answer in the 5th paragraph: Germany. It took 4 days in the hospital before they identified the cause of his symptoms:After they ran the test that finally showed the Capnocytophaga canimorsus infection, doctors added another antibiotic and an antifungal treatment to the patient’s medical routine as some of his afflictions waned and others worsened. The treatment was too late.I added that boldface, and I want to highlight the treatment of recent cases in the United States:
Toward the end of his life, all of his extremities had gangrene and a CT scan showed that he had severe brain swelling with a lack of oxygen, according to the paper.
The man’s relatives made a mutual decision to reduce his treatment. He died after 16 days of care, according to doctors.
Last year, a Wisconsin man lost his legs, hands and nose after contracting the same bacteria from his dog’s saliva. He’s walking again with the help of prosthetics, FOX 6 reported.If the German man had received amputations and continued full-strength antibiotics, would he not still be alive? The real story here seems to be not that a dog's lick could kill you — the attention-getting scare headline — but that the readiness to solve medical problems with death varies from place to place.
In July, an Ohio woman had both her arms and legs partially amputated after waking from a coma that was caused by C. canimorsus, Fox 8 Cleveland reported.
ADDED: From place to place and from relative to relative.
