Follow me on:

Reports from China are that Austalian Olympic Gold Medal swimmer Grant Hackett has been hospitalized due to a severe infection. Hackett was touring China on his honeymoon, got a small cut on his ankle from some coral, and the cut evidently escalated into a severe infection, possibly caused by flesh-eating bacteria, according to reports from a variety of sources.
