Conservative writer Bre Payton died suddenly Friday at age 26 after being diagnosed with an illness.

Payton, a writer at The Federalist, was discovered unconscious by friend Morgan Murtaugh, early Thursday morning and was taken to a San Diego hospital.

Murtaugh shared on Twitter that Payton had been diagnosed with H1N1 flu, commonly known as swine flu, before she died suddenly on Friday.

Ma, the flu kicks my butt. Puts me down. I KNOW when I’ve had the flu. Most people get bad colds and they think they have had the flu.

There is no Spanish Flu epidemic currently in the area.


Good God, I hope not. My point was that some strains of flu specialize in killing otherwise healthy adults. It seems their immune systems overreact to the virus, contributing to organ failure, where a less robust immune system ironically helps victims survive.

FWIW there is speculation that the Spanish Flu was a form of swine flu that jumped species in Kansas during WWI and infected soldiers training at a base there.

I’m not sure the flu shot is effective against the swine flu.

No one, least of all me ever suggested that “every 26 year old dies two day after they get the Flu.” An impossibility as not every 26 year old gets the flu let alone dies with it. But, and here is where you have to pay attention. The course of flu experienced by Bre and her death are more common in young otherwise healthy adults. The research (as in not pulled out of the conspiracy theory hat but scientific kind) shows this is (ironically enough) because of the healthy immune system going into full on attack mode against the virus. You could look it up.

Now that the global multicultural socialist push is in full gear and foreigners are pouring into our country, diseases eradicated or nearly wiped out are back on the rise in the U.S.. You can thank these open borders republicans/democrats.

H1N1 strain has been included for several years but that is not to say it is effective.

You are being extremely irresponsible. Swine flu does not resemble cyanide toxicity. Death from cyanide poisoning is painful-very painful. I shudder to think what Bre’s family would feel if people start spreading such rumors.

It is bad enough that crackpot conspiracy theories are being touted about her death. But the ignorance displayed by the claim of cyanide poisoning is galling.
SHE.DIED.OF.FLU(probably H1N1)AND POSSIBLY MENINGITIS.

Did she already get the flu shot and that’s WHY she’s dead?

Are you a flaming idiot or just an idiot?

“Healthy 26 year olds rarely die from the flu.”

I disagree. My friend’s son died in his sleep of cardiac arrhythmia after having H1N1 flu. He was a healthy 21 year old young man. Ironically, my daughter and only child died of the same thing two months earlier. She was a healthy 29 year old young woman.

Conservatives or Democrats who know too much.

It is interesting how so many of these deaths effectively protect the Clintons and Obama in particular.

They are just lucky folks, I guess.

Thx to both of you for your points about how the younger can get hit harder. I didn’t know that.

"Odd. No other reported cases of swine flu in San Diego, yet Bre gets it.

Doesn't add up."

______________________________________

I just ran into this on her Instagram.....( I don't know exactly what this means.)

*******

"After a CT scan and hours of testing, they have determined she has the H1N1 flu and possibly meningitis."

ONCE AGAIN

IT WAS THE FLU SHOT WITH THE ADJUVENTS that EAT AWAY at the MELANIN SHEATH that surrounds the spinal cord!

*******
