A Florida resident surprisingly contracted flesh-eating bacteria after he was bitten by a man he is related to while trying to break up a fight at a family get-together.
Donnie Adams was at a family function in Tampa Bay, Florida, in February 2022 when he intervened in a fight between two relatives. According to WSAV, one of the family members bit Adams on the thigh before he could stop the altercation.
The wounded man said he immediately went to the hospital for a tetanus shot and antibiotics, but the treatments did not stop an infection from developing.
“By the third day, my leg was very sore. I couldn’t walk, it was very warm and very painful,” Adams said. Adams went to the emergency room where he met Dr. Fritz Brink, an osteopathic physician who assessed his wound.

Florida Man — always on the brink of gruesome death.
Human bites get horribly infected. In the ER we would get guys in after a fight with a “fight bite “ on this knuckle. They would brag about how they won the fight. And then I would tell them they needed to go to the OR to get the joint washed out. If they waited a day or two they would come in with horrible infections, sometimes not able to work for no months.
Human bites can be very deadly. I remember an article where a school bus driver died from a bite from a 6 to 8-year-old student.
The biter is clearly the liberal one in the family. My younger brother probably shares a lot of personality traits.
That one needs to spit out his gum, pronto.
Maybe the ‘nephew’ isn’t FROM the US
