I like how they talk about "consultation with appropriate authorities" and "the patient was transferred to another facility." (without saying who the authorities were, or the name of the facility).

What did the guy die OF, anyway, so quickly?

Why does vomiting blood occur?
There are many causes of vomiting blood. They range in severity from minor to major and are normally the result of an injury, illness, or medication use.

Vomiting blood may be caused by minor conditions such as:

esophagus irritation
nosebleeds
swallowing blood
tear in the esophagus due to chronic coughing or vomiting
swallowing a foreign object
Other common causes of vomiting blood include:

stomach ulcers
aspirin side effects
gastritis, or stomach inflammation
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug side effects
pancreatitis
More serious causes of vomiting blood include:

cirrhosis
esophageal cancer
erosion of the stomach lining
pancreatic cancer

Smuggling via swallowed foreign object?
