Asylum seeker brain dead from cellulitis

A 24 year-old Iranian asylum seeker has been declared brain dead, following his emergency medical evacuation from the Manus island detention centre last week, refugee advocates and his family in Tehran have told Guardian Australia.
Hamid Kehazaei, contracted cellulitis, which developed into septicemia on Manus. The Refugee Action Coalition say the infection was contracted after Kehazaei cut his foot in the detention centre. Members of Kehazaei’s family confirmed to Guardian Australia they were told by hospital staff in Brisbane that Hamid’s condition originated in his foot.

FYI dieing from cellulitis is incredibly rare - only about 27,000 people die from it every year globally. For a seemingly healthy 24 year old to die from it is just crazy.

Whatever you might think of asylum seekers I'm pretty sure that most of you would agree a painful death from infection is not acceptable.
