Needless to say both perished, so where are the flu jabs that we were promised by this Government would be available from August onwards? This girl apparently had no other underlying health problems!! Scary or what, I think we need some answers!!

What do you think members?

So sad that this happened and very scary. Think though that it is hopefully not killing as many as originally thought & it is unusual for someone to die without other health problems.

My guess is that she may have had underlying health problems that went undiagnosed. Perhaps problems directly related to her pregnancy? Who knows; but as Stephanie said, it is very unusual for someone to die unless their are other problems.

Anna made that point also Diana, we don't know but how sad and why isn't more being done to protect the vulnerable, no matter where they are?
