A Spanish woman almost lost her life after drinking coffee from a vending machine at the airport. She drank the coffee without noticing the bugs in it, but these bugs caused anaphylactic shock in the woman’s body.

According to Spanish media outlet Ultimahora on the 24th (local time), a Spanish woman, Ms A (21), was rushed to hospital after drinking coffee from a vending machine at Palma de Mallorca Airport on the 22nd. It was an allergic reaction caused by a swarm of bugs floating in the coffee, leading to anaphylactic shock.

It is said that Mr. And drank coffee not knowing there were bugs floating around at the time, and then felt a strange sensation. After discovering that the cup was swarming with bugs, she is said to have experienced symptoms of shock, including sudden swelling of her face and congestion in her throat.

Mr A received first aid at the airport and was immediately taken to hospital. After that, he was hospitalized in the intensive care unit for about 36 hours and has now been discharged.

Mr A filed a complaint against the airport, saying, “This happened because the airport officials did not maintain the cleanliness of the vending machines properly.”
