NSman dies after liver failure caused by an unknown virus

 

04:47 AM May 21, 2011

 

A 22-year-old Singaporean NSman died after suffering from acute liver failure caused by an unknown virus.

 

On May 1, Hoo Shuwei came down with a high fever and was later admitted to the Singapore General Hospital (SGH).

 

His liver cells started to deteriorate and after a few days, he was diagnosed with liver failure and his kidneys were also affected. The SGH said Shuwei was put on the priority list for transplant, but he died before a donor was available.

 

Doctors advised the public to seek immediate treatment if they suffer from a high fever for more than 24 hours without any other symptoms.

I am surprised that no match was found. I thought liver is easy to find like in Andrea De Cruz.

 

What happened?
