Pneumonia.  She got sick, tried to tough it out, and did not seek treatment.

A US Air Force Academy cadet found lifeless in her Colorado dorm room last month died of pneumonia — a tragedy that could have been prevented, according to one medical expert.

Avery Koonce, 19, of Tyler, Texas, died Sept. 4 as the result of “paeniclostridium sordelli sepsis complicating parainfluenza laryngotraceobronchitis,” according to an autopsy report from the El Paso County Coroner’s Office.

“In essence she died of untreated pneumonia,” said famed forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden, who reviewed the autopsy report obtained by The Post.

The coroner described paeniclostridium sordelli as a “relatively rare but potentially fatal anaerobic bacteria” that is “associated with a toxic shock-like syndrome that can rapidly progress to death.” But it was “secondary” to the parainfluenza — or viral lung infection — the coroner’s report found.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Sad. You have to know your own limitations, and for whatever reason, this cadet exceeded hers.

RIP.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
