An elderly couple of Malaysian descent, 83 years old she and 84 he, was drunk after cooking the meat of a blowfish, one of the most poisonous species in the world which, if prepared without their knowledge and therefore without following normal procedure, can cause death in a few hours. It is contained in his flesh tetradotoxina neurotoxin that can paralyze and even kill an adult human. The two had ordered the fish via social media and last Saturday morning when it arrived the lady had started cleaning and cooking it. An hour after eating, the woman became ill. The chairman of Johor’s health and unity committee said the lady started shaking and was having trouble breathing. After another hour, her condition worsened and her husband also began to feel ill, so the son rushed her to the hospital. Nothing could be done for the lady and she died in a short time, her husband is still in serious condition in intensive care. It was the first time the seniors had eaten puffer fish, but the supplier they bought it from online sold a 15kg batch to four other customers the same day, none of whom reported anything wrong.
