respiratory failure

Mercury is a neurotoxin and can cause serious health issues such as tremors, insomnia, emotional changes, headaches, decreased mental function, kidney effects, respiratory failure and death, depending on the amount and form of exposure.

But last year, dozens of people across the country who ate slickly branded Diamond Shruumz products—whose tongue-in-cheek labels promise “great vibes” with a “powerful effect”—were hospitalized with seizures, respiratory failure, and other health problems.

While rare, the disease can be lead to respiratory failure in some cases.

Pope Francis has remained stable after suffering two episodes of respiratory failure on Monday.

In its nightly update, the Vatican said the Pope did not present any further episodes of respiratory failure or bronchospasm.
