More Info on Stephen Gately’s Death
Further information has been revealed about the tragic death of Boyzone singer Stephen Gately. The singer’s lungs quickly filled with fluid and doctors say that in most cases, it’s related to heart failure and could have potentially been Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS). 90% of SADS cases occur in men and 12 people under the age of 35 die from it each week. UK cardiologist Dr. Sanjay Sharma explained “In young people like Stephen, under 35, the vast majority of cases are caused by either hereditary diseases affecting the heart muscle itself or an electrical fault of the heart…I would say it was an electrical fault, when the heart goes into a fatally fast rhythm, around 300 beats a minute. That would only need to happen for a couple of minutes to result in death. A medic would have had to have got to him within minutes. Often in these cases a first symptom of the condition is death, however he may have suffered palpitations and or blackouts.”
