💨 Abstract

A woman, Emma Hickey, is in a coma after suffering severe reactions to mosquito bites during a family holiday in Tenerife. She collapsed and fell down a staircase, resulting in a brain bleed and neck fractures. Her partner, Stephen Brougham, witnessed the incident and described it as a "living nightmare." The family faces substantial medical and hotel bills, highlighting the importance of travel insurance and awareness of potential insect-related health risks.
