Kind of weird that the surgeons are implicated to have caused it in the headline, when he died of a heart problem unrelated to the cosmetic surgery.
You'd think the drugs and medications he was taking would be more at fault in that case.
The surgery was not found to be the cause of death. It's just included in the headline this way for clicks.
Given the context, read that as "dicks"
So the article said he received injections. Which very easily could be the direct cause of the heart attack. Why would you assume the was no connection?? I mean, one was charged with practicing medicine without a license.
Doesn't sound odd at all.
Because they read the article.
That's what the article reports. An investigation was conducted into the death, and concluded that the injections were not related. The only issue with the cosmetic surgeons was that their licence wasn't applicable in France, or other regulatory faults.
The victim taking numerous erectile dysfunction and penile enlargement medications were suggested to have been the driver for the heart problems that killed him.
did you not read the article?
