Previously, I talked about SIDS. But a recent study by The Women’s and Children’s Hospital in the UK and the University of Adelaide in Australia have found that bacterial infection could be the cause of some cases of cot death in the UK.
The researchers found that the babies who died without apparent reasons carried potentially harmful bacteria called Staphylococcus aureus. And these bacteria could have triggered a chemical reaction that overwhelms the baby, resulting in sudden death.
It definitely sounds quite scary!
