There was another bizarre article back in 2020, with a similar title - "Healthy Child Dies of COVID" or some such.
I actually clicked through to the article, and read it. The "healthy" child in question was obese, and, according to the text - but not the headline - of the article, probably had un-diagnosed diabetes, because he died when his blood sugar spiraled out of control and they couldn't get it fixed before it killed him. At best, he died of un-diagnosed metabolic disorder probably bought on by obesity, and exacerbated by a virus that wouldn't have killed a healthy anybody.

But the headline said "Healthy Child". Madness.
