She didnt even get to the doctor. An over the phone diagnosis!!! If your sick and suspect something serious get to a doctor or hospital! Thats the best advice I can give. Dont trust some untrained person on the phone.
Charlotte Hartey’s condition was diagnosed over the phone, like many other H1N1 viruses in the United Kingdom, but when complications arose from Charlotte’s real affliction – tonsillitis – the teenager died.
