Contaminated coffee, girl who died at 17: what happened
112 had to intervene and quickly took the young woman to intensive care in the Alcázar de San Juan. How did it happen? The young woman was at the ‘Creo’ meeting, she was volunteering there according to the parish. “We ask for a prayer for her eternal rest and we are very close to her parents, brother and the whole family”. One of the symptoms, rare but very serious, is the anaphylactic reaction, which affects various organs and systems. “The most serious manifestation is anaphylactic shock which can be fatal”, specifies the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (Aesan).
The funerals
The young woman lived and studied in the city of Manzanares, La Mancha. The center where she was trained also published her condolences on social networks. As Aesan points out, milk allergy can be caused by casein, lactoglobulin and lactalbumin. The most common symptoms are skin, but they can also be digestive, such as vomiting and diarrhea. Additionally, the agency stresses that it is crucial not to confuse allergies with lactose intolerance, as diarrhea occurs in the latter due to an inability to digest this dairy component.
