Tragedy in Messina: 8-year-old girl dies at the hospital after arriving with high fever.
Explain to me briefly the following article:
A 8-year-old girl has died during the night in the pediatric intensive care unit of the Policlinico. The little girl had been brought by her parents with a very high fever during the night between last Saturday and Sunday. The medical staff did everything they could to save her, but unfortunately, there was nothing they could do.
The girl had already had a high fever for a few days, and her parents, worried, had even requested the pediatrician to come home until they decided to take her to the emergency room of the Policlinico. Here the girl arrived dehydrated and with a fever. From the first tests carried out, the presence of an infection emerged. She was immediately transferred to the pediatric intensive care unit where she was given the therapies prescribed in these cases. However, her heart stopped beating at 4:15 last night.
Further investigations are ongoing to identify what may have caused the infection.
The family is from Messina, the little girl who would have turned 9 in December, attended the first-grade primary school at Mazzini-Gallo, and this is where she started feeling unwell last Friday.
