I don’t believe it. Young people don’t die from pneumonia so quickly. Pneumonia does not become life threatening so quickly.

I don’t recall even the Spanish flu 1918, 1919, progressing from onset to death so quickly, although that on was fast.

7-11 Days from onset of flu symptoms to death for 1918-19 Spanish flu. Death was from a secondary bacterial pneumonia in a client weakened by viral flu and the patients own immune system worked against them, with healthy adults dying more than the very young and old whose immune systems were either immature or weaker with age.

Pneumonia didn’t kill her. Paeniclostridium sordelli sepsis.

How do you know it happened “quickly.” And, pneumonia can go septic really fast. THAT will kill you in hours.

As a matter of fact it does. There is more than one type of pneumonia.

Pneumonia didn’t kill her. It was only a contributing factor.
A rare form of sepsis is what killed her.

When I was in the best shape of my life in the Army in my mid-20’s; I got pneumonia. Hit me like a hammer in about a day. Went from fine, to bundled up and freezing in 80 degree weather, to so dehydrated they couldn’t give me an IV in the field. Shipped me back to base the next day and I was hospitalized for 2 days. Took me well over a month to recover.
It’s possible.
