7 months agoGreek heiress died of sepsis caused by insect bite 'hours after she was discharged from London hospital'
Marissa Laimou died of sepsis from an insect bite one day after discharge from a London hospital.
She then went to a London hospital and also saw her oncologist, who arranged for her to be sent to another hospital by ambulance. But family and friends said nurses, rather than doctors, examined her and concluded she did not need to be admitted. She was discharged in the early evening with antibiotics and a diagnosis that referred to an insect bite.
