ROME – It emerged Thursday that on Wednesday afternoon an American Erasmus student, 21, had died after eating a sandwich in Pigneto.
The young woman, who turned out to be an allergic to something in the sandwich – it is still unknown what, precisely - went to anaphylactic shock, collapsing on the road opposite the restaurant. There was then a desperate race, with the call to 118 and the administration of cortisone. Healthcare personnel practiced heart massage for 30 minutes, but there was nothing to be done to save the girl.
