hmmm. Unless it was govt conspiracy (ebola virus researchers at a govt agency, fearing the
imminent shutdown, begin frezied testing on people), it could have been a gram-negative
septicema. What happens is you get real sick and your blood turns to jello, leading to
congestive heart failure and possibly tissue necrosis. Very slim chance, but it could
happen from a cut or torn tissue from the doc's over-eager probes.
