But not Corona: Larry Kings († 87) cause of death is certain

This news shook the world at the beginning of the year: A few weeks after Larry King (✝87) was admitted to hospital with a corona infection, the US talk show legend died. Exact details were not previously known, but it was believed that Larrys Death is related to Covid. But this is not the case as has now been announced. The cause of death of the journalist has a different background.

People has now confirmed that the “The Larry King Live “presenter did not die from the novel virus. The 87-year-old’s death certificate instead lists sepsis, also known as blood poisoning, as the primary cause of death. This is an inflammatory reaction of the body to an infection that spreads throughout the body via the blood and can therefore be life-threatening. A severely reduced oxygen content in the blood and kidney failure were given as secondary causes of death.

Larry had several underlying illnesses. He had suffered from type two diabetes mellitus for years and had several heart attacks. In 1987 he had to undergo five bypass operations. He was also diagnosed with lung cancer in 2017. He had also suffered from severe chest pain in the past.
