Ammon – The death of the young British artist, Orla Baxendale, is still the focus of international press, as she died suddenly in the United States after eating a biscuit containing peanuts.
In detail, the performing artist, who suffers from a severe allergy to peanuts, ate a piece of biscuit and suffered a severe allergic attack, which was not helped by using the automatic injection pen that the young woman always carries with her.
The British newspaper “The Independent” published the story of the 25-year-old artist, who bought a piece of cake from the grocery store “Stew Leonards”, and it was not written on the product’s packaging that it contained peanuts or any mention of the presence of nuts among the cake’s ingredients, which led to her choking excessively. Allergies and their death.
The report confirmed that Baxendale had an EpiPen with her, but it was not enough to combat the severe allergic reaction she suffered after eating the cookies, according to a statement issued by her lawyer. She died of anaphylactic shock on January 11.
The Baxendale family announced that their daughter, who moved to New York City in 2018, was preparing to perform her role in the “Alice in Wonderland” show, describing her as embodying the true meaning of enthusiasm, strength and beauty.
The statement added, “The preliminary investigation revealed that Orla’s death occurred due to gross negligence and reckless behavior on the part of the manufacturer and/or sellers,” stressing that their daughter cares greatly about the ingredients of what she eats and always monitors the contents to protect herself.
In addition, Brian Caffirelli, Commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection, described Baxendale’s death as a “heartbreaking tragedy.” He said his government agency is working with local and federal officials as well as other states to avoid a similar tragedy in the future.
