'Straight to hospital' - NHS symptoms list as five die every hour

The NHS has issued an urgent warning about sepsis, a life-threatening condition caused by the body's immune response to infection. Five people die from sepsis every hour in the UK, highlighting the severity of the issue. The NHS has outlined specific symptoms that require immediate medical attention, including sudden confusion, slurred speech, difficulty breathing, changes in skin color, and a lack of urination. These symptoms vary between adults and children, with additional concerns for young children such as extreme lethargy, seizures, and rashes that do not fade when pressed. The NHS emphasizes the importance of acting quickly if any of these symptoms are observed, urging individuals to seek emergency care without delay.
