How Did Felipe Solis Olguin Die? (Update)

The reason for this thread is to raise the question on the accuracy of news reports and question if anyone that accompanied Obama to Mexico had become ill from the trip.

First to the death of Felipe Solis Olguin. He was as reported by the Reforma to have met with Obama on April 16th and had died on the 23rd from a combination of diabetes and pneumonia.

Other news agencies state he died from a cardiac arrest.

So how did he die? Who knows, but one thing is for sure, people who have visited Mexico are coming back sick. And Obama may not be sick, but that does not mean others that went on the trip to Mexico wouldn't be.

It would be interesting to know if anyone that went on the trip, was quarantined.

Flu Special Report: The Basics

The flu can also worsen chronic health problems: asthmatics are more likely to have asthma attacks and people with chronic congestive heart failure may have their condition worsen.

On average, 36,000 people in the United States die from influenza and related complications each year, according to the CDC. More than 200,000 are admitted to hospitals for treatment.
