The NASCAR world was left in shock when Kyle Busch, one of the winningest drivers in the sport's history, passed away on May 21. His cause of death was confirmed as severe pneumonia that progressed into sepsis. However, a medical expert claims that Busch's death may have been preventable had proper medical protocols been followed.
According to Dr. Jesse Morse, Busch should have been hospitalized and treated with IV antibiotics weeks earlier. This could have potentially avoided his fatal illness.
Busch's attorney has dismissed claims that the driver's family did not have adequate life insurance coverage in place. He stated that the family had replaced their previous coverage with improved policies following an expert review.
Busch's wife, Samantha Busch, has been urged to consider legal action by several fans. They argue that the driver's fatal illness could have been avoided with appropriate medical care.
