The sad story of a 21-year-old British trainee who dreamed of becoming a pilot of the future died after being bitten by a mosquito.



On the 7th local time, foreign media such as the BBC and the Daily Mail introduced the story of Oriana Pepper, 21, a pilot trainee of British airline EasyJet.



Pepper has successfully completed her airline written exam and has been participating in flight training in Antwerp, Belgium since May of last year.

She and she died on the 7th of July when she was bitten by a mosquito and died only 5 days later.



Nigel Parsley, chief medical examiner in Suffolk, England, said: "I have never seen anything like this before. It is a clear tragedy for a young woman with a wonderful future awaiting her." I did.



At the time, Pepper had bitten her mosquitoes on her forehead and around her right eye, and she went home after being prescribed her antibiotics at her hospital.

But two days later, she said Pepper collapsed and she was taken to her hospital emergency room by her boyfriend, but she died five days later.

Coroner Pursley said the cause of death was "severe infection at the site of a mosquito bite" and the exact cause of death was a 'septic embolism' in the brain.



Staphylococcus aureus, a type of bacteria, penetrated the mosquito bite wound and blocked an artery in the brain through the carotid artery in the neck, resulting in death.



In an interview with a media outlet, his boyfriend recalled that he had been bitten by mosquitoes several times after arriving in Belgium, but this was the first time he had experienced such symptoms.



After the cause of death was revealed, it was revealed that Pepper's mother had established a small scholarship foundation for women aspiring to become pilots with the British Women's Pilots Association.



In addition, as the sad story of Pepper, who was training hard for his dream, became known belatedly, local netizens are continuing to mourn.
