Apparently this is what Sinead O’Connor died of, it’s just been announced. But how is a 56 year old just dying in any way natural in this day and age?
In: Biology
I can’t speak to this particular case, but it really isn’t that unusual for someone in their 50’s to suffer a natural end. There are things like brain aneurysms that can take out anyone at any time. There can be underlying heart conditions that are just ticking time bombs. There are conditions like cancer that can take someone down very quickly, even before a diagnosis is made. Remember, the general public doesn’t have an inherent right to know someone’s medical history, so if the family doesn’t want to disclose the actual cause of death, they’ll just state natural causes. The police are free to investigate, and even force an autopsy, but that isn’t automatic, and the results wouldn’t necessarily be disclosed to the public.
