Sepsis symptoms as GMB presenter Kate Garraway's husband returns to hospital with condition

Kate Garraway, a Good Morning Britain presenter, has spoke about her husband’s return to hospital with what she says is “life-threatening” sepsis.
Her husband Derek Draper, a 54-year-old former political adviser, initially fell ill with coronavirus in March 2020, but has suffered some long-term damage. Draper's poor health led Garraway to take a three-week break from GMB to look after her husband when he took a sharp decline.
He has been diagnosed with sepsis by A&E staff, with the source of the infection being his kidneys, reports the Mirror. This may leave some with questions about how the condition and how it develops, as identifying sepsis early is vital for proper treatment.
Thankfully, this has been the case for Draper, who's swift diagnosis has meant that he is receiving proper care with things looking positive.
“He’s still in hospital, not in intensive care, waiting for another procedure, looking really good.,” Garraway told GMB viewers.
“So fingers crossed on everything and particularly one kidney looking really good, just need to look at the other one, and so yeah, he’s still in (a) high dependency (unit).”
Sepsis occurs when the body overreacts to an infection and starts to damage the body’s own tissues and organs.
It can be deadly and is notoriously hard to spot due to the vagueness of the symptoms, which can be like flu or having a chest infection, according to the NHS.
You cannot catch sepsis, also known as septicaemia or blood poisoning, from another person.
Treatment for sepsis varies, depending on the area affected, the cause of the infection, organs affected and the extent of any damage. Intensive care may be needed for those whose breathing is badly impacted by sepsis.
