On June 25, a post asking for help attracted widespread attention online. The 21-year-old is a sophomore in college and has launched a fundraiser for his family: "My grandfather, father, mother, and younger brother have food poisoning, and they are now being rescued in the ICU of Panzhihua Central Hospital. ”
Xiao Peng's family is from Kelang Village, Caochang Town, Miyi County, Panzhihua City. According to reports, on June 19, Xiao Peng's mother and younger brother went to the mountains not far from home to pick mushrooms and "mistakenly brought back the poisonous Amanita phalloides"; At noon that day, Xiao Peng's grandfather came to visit relatives, and among the meals we ate together, there were mushrooms picked from the mountains. "No one would have thought that my grandfather, father, mother, and brother would all be poisoned."
In the early morning of the 20th, the four people felt signs of poisoning and immediately went to the Miyi County People's Hospital, and the doctor immediately sent them to the rescue room for gastric lavage and infusion rescue after understanding the situation. After that, the four were admitted to the ICU for hemodialysis treatment.
On the 21st, Xiao Peng's grandfather and younger brother became seriously ill, and the doctor arranged to transfer them to Panzhihua Central Hospital. On the 22nd, Xiao Peng's parents were also transferred to Panzhihua Central Hospital due to the aggravation of their condition. On the evening of the 23rd, Xiao Peng's parents and younger brother were slightly stabilized and transferred to the comprehensive ICU to continue dialysis treatment. On the 24th, my grandfather was transferred to the comprehensive ICU for treatment. "In just a few days, 6 critical illness notices were issued in a row."
Four people were diagnosed with mushroom poisoning
According to the data, the Amanita genus contains about 600 species of umbellifera, including some of the most poisonous mushrooms known in the world.
Yunnan CDC once issued a document saying that Amanita phalloides is a type of toadstool with the highest fatality rate in Yunnan and even the whole country, and 90% of the deaths caused by poisoning by amanita phalloides are caused by Amanita phalloides by mistake.

According to the critical illness notice issued by Panzhihua Central Hospital, Xiao Peng's parents, younger brother, and grandfather were all diagnosed with mushroom poisoning (Bailuo umbrella). Four people developed symptoms such as liver damage, acute liver failure, and abnormal coagulation function.
On June 26, due to his serious illness, Xiao Peng's 69-year-old grandfather unfortunately passed away on the evening of the 25th. At present, his 15-year-old brother, 42-year-old mother and 37-year-old father are still receiving treatment in the hospital and are not out of danger.
Amanita has a fatality rate of more than 75%.
"Deadly Amanita phalloides, such as the white poison umbrella and the gray pattern Amanita phalloides, we will have a mantra for discernment: wear a hat on the head, tie a skirt around the waist, and wear boots under the feet. However, due to wind and rain in the natural environment, these characteristics may be damaged and difficult to distinguish, such as non-poisonous chicken fir fir is difficult to distinguish, and once accidentally eaten, the consequences are serious. Gong Bing, an attending physician in the emergency department of the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province, said that Amanita has a fatality rate of more than 75%, and an adult may die if he eats 1 to 2 caps. The remaining 25% will persist even if they are cured.
