There is a very sad story coming out of Montana about the death of a 10-year-old child dying from an infected spider bite. And I've heard this story all too often before.
10-year-old dies after spider bite - CBS 5 - KPHO
There are so many medical questions with this story.
If the story is accurate, how does a medical staff think a skin infection is all of sudden a growth of cancer?
Did they even do a swab test for MRSA?
Deadly MRSA infections are oftentimes misdiagnosed by doctors as infected spider bites from a brown recluse. MRSA infections require immediate care and treatment, yet patients are oftentimes sent home.
My thoughts are with this child, his family and his community...
