An autopsy report has ruled that the death of a tourist at one of the major resorts in Providenciales, was not due to the mystery sickness that has plagued a number of hotels and resorts
on that island. The autopsy report confirmed that the male visitor to the Turks and Caicos Islands, who was found dead in his hotel room at the Grace Bay Club, died of a heart attack and not as a result
of the mysterious sickness of vomiting and diarrhea that has affected at least a dozen hotels in Grace Bay, and over 150 persons on the island of Providenciales. The TCI SUN quoted a reliable source as saying that the visitor, whose name has been given as Steve Ware, suffered from “acute myo-cardial infarction” or a heart attack. “His death had absolutely nothing to do with the virus that has affected several persons on the island. He had 70% left artery blocked and 80% right artery blocked and there were some blood
clots. They did not find signs of diarrhea, and Mrs. Ware never saw him vomiting,” the SUN quoted the reliable source as saying. Ware and his wife were reportedly in the Turks and Caicos Islands celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary. His death just happened to coincide with the mysterious illness, characterized
by diarrhea and vomiting, that has sickened over 150 persons (hotel employees and visitors alike) from the various hotels and resorts on Providenciales.
