British Man Dies from Cape Verde Resort Illness; Family Speaks Out

Published 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Description

A British man, on his retirement trip to Cape Verde, tragically passed away from severe gastric illness after staying at a five-star resort. His symptoms began with diarrhea and vomiting, and despite being immunocompromised, he continued with the trip. His wife, now speaking out, described their ordeal, which led to multi-organ failure and his death. This incident echoes earlier cases at the same resort, and lawyers are supporting over 1,700 UK visitors whove fallen ill since 2022. Cape Verde officials found shigella bacteria in irrigation water and fresh produce, urging travelers to avoid raw salads and stick to hot cooked meals. Tour operators are urged to enhance safety measures, especially for all-inclusive resorts.
