Tanya Roberts' Death Linked to Urinary Tract Infection
Actress Died from Sepsis, a Common Complication
January 6, 2021
Actress Tanya Roberts, best known for her roles in the James Bond film A View to a Kill and the television series That '70s Show, died on Monday night from a urinary tract infection that developed into sepsis, a more common outcome than many people realize.
Roberts' partner, Lance O'Brien, told CNN that the actress had been hospitalized for the past week with a urinary tract infection. Her condition worsened on Monday, and she was placed on a ventilator. She died later that night.
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the body's immune system overreacts to an infection. It can lead to organ failure and death. In Roberts' case, the sepsis spread to her bloodstream and caused her organs to fail.
While sepsis is a serious condition, it is important to remember that it is treatable. If you or someone you know has a urinary tract infection, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. Early treatment can help to prevent the infection from developing into sepsis.
