A whistleblower at Spirit AeroSystems, a Tier 1 supplier for Boeing, has passed away after battling pneumonia and a subsequent bacterial infection. The whistleblower, Josh Dean, spent two weeks in a critical condition before passing away.
波音公司的一级供应商Spirit AeroSystems的一名举报人在与肺炎和随后的细菌感染作斗争后去世。举报人乔什·迪恩(Josh Dean)在去世前处于危急状态两周。

Let go from Spirit AeroSystems
放开 Spirit AeroSystems

According to a report by The Seattle Times, Dean passed away in Oklahoma City, after spending two weeks in a critical condition. He had contracted pneumonia and later developed a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection.
根据《西雅图时报》的报道,迪恩在危急状态下度过了两周后在俄克拉荷马城去世。他感染了肺炎,后来出现了耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)感染。

The publication noted that Dean was let go from Spirit AeroSystems in April 2023.
该出版物指出,Dean 于 2023 年 4 月被 Spirit AeroSystems 解雇。

Per the Mayo Clinic, the infection is resistant to many of the antibiotics that are used to treat staph infections, with the medical practice group noting that most MRSA infections are contracted in hospitals or other healthcare settings.
根据梅奥诊所的说法,这种感染对许多用于治疗葡萄球菌感染的抗生素具有耐药性,医疗实践小组指出,大多数MRSA感染都是在医院或其他医疗机构感染的。

“Infections can resist the effects of many common antibiotics, so they're more difficult to treat. This can allow the infections to spread and sometimes become life-threatening.”
“感染可以抵抗许多常见抗生素的作用,因此它们更难治疗。这可能会使感染扩散,有时甚至危及生命。

Another Boeing whistleblower, John Barnett, was found dead in his car in March. A few years prior, Barnett had raised concerns about the Boeing 787.
另一位波音举报人约翰·巴内特(John Barnett)于3月被发现死在车内。几年前,巴内特曾对波音787表示担忧。

However, suggesting any connections between the two deaths and secret plots to silence whistleblowers would be ludicrous, considering the potential consequences for the company.
然而,考虑到对公司的潜在后果,暗示两起死亡事件与让举报人保持沉默的秘密阴谋之间的任何联系都是荒谬的。
