The stealthy killer that nobody has heard of

The stealthy killer that nobody has heard of | Opinion | villanovan.com:

What causes an American to die every two minutes? What’s the third leading killer of people in the United States?  What’s the #1 killer of children in the world?  It’s the same answer for each question:  Sepsis.  Sepsis is the disease that 45 percent of Americans have never heard of, yet it’s killing more of us than breast cancer, prostate cancer and AIDS combined.  The most shocking fact is that 80 percent of these sepsis deaths were preventable if the victims had the proper information about this stealthy killer.
