"(Jim) Henson died on May 16, 1990, of organ failure resulting from a Group A streptococcal infection caused by Streptococcus pyogenes."

"John Henson ... died at age 48 of a sudden massive heart attack on Friday, February 14, while at home with his daughter."

Two completely unrelated causes.

One Streptococcus pyogenes infection is strep throat. (There are several others, impetigo, necrotizing fasciitis, and other nasty infections.)
