"Sources"? Paste them.

Google is your friend.

People say things like “sources are now saying” when they’re either making shit up or repeating things they have heard that are not based in fact.

What? NBC news, which is linked and quoted are saying that.

Yes, it was later linked, but there have been numerous times on this thread where people say things with no basis. That’s why it’s helpful to post link.

You finally saw it? It was linked exactly 35 minutes later. And after that link, you still railed about wanting a link. Idiot.

Yep. Link was up at 9:42 and then at 9:49 you posted asking for a source. lol. You obviously didn’t see it.

Someone posted a link plus it’s all over the news now.

That’s not the point. If someone posts a new update, they should post a link. Otherwise we’re going to assume they’re full of it just like the person who said the entire family tested positive for fentanyl which is untrue. No one wants to go off on a wild Google chase.

NP. Sorry but you are annoying and weird. You're all over this site lately insisting people prove things to you, aren't you?

I would think every room would have one but looking back I've never seen one in the hotels I've gone too.NYT did a story about the subject. They interviewed a guy who fell sick because of carbon monoxide in his hotel room. Smoke alarms are usually required but CO2 alarms are not. This is for America and other countries as well. I'll remember to pack a portable on our next trip.

The post also had an interesting article because in some homes there is just enough that people feel sick like they have the flu but it's not enough to send them to the hospital. The standard carbon monoxide alarm only sounds if there are very high levels. They don't go off to lower levels which can make you sick. The better carbon monoxide detectors are more expensive.

The easy thing to do is open the window (if you can)

Someone clue me in- what is causing the high carbon monoxide levels in these cases of deaths at hotels in warm climates? I thought that carbon monoxide came from heat sources and cars.

Zofran?

No, antibiotics.

This is why you don’t trust third world country doctors. Why would you need antibiotics when you have food poisoning?

? The dr is an American dr who lives there. I was also given antibiotics at a local we for food poisoning.

It's interesting that people are acting like Costa Rica is such an undeveloped place. That's really not the case. I was in Manuel Antonio the summer before last, and got sick - saw a Costa Rican doctor who was excellent and got me treated well and quickly, with prescriptions that were affordable and did the job. It's not like they were in the dregs of dire straights somewhere.

Story is really sad, nonetheless.

Confirmed that it was carbon monoxide that killed him.

Miller Gardner, the 14-year-old son of the longtime Yankees player Brett Gardner, died of carbon monoxide poisoning while on vacation with his family last month, the Costa Rican authorities said on Thursday.

A toxicology report after his death found high levels of carboxyhemoglobin, an indicator of carbon monoxide in the blood, according to a statement from Randall Zúñiga, the director of the Costa Rica Judicial Investigation Agency. Miller Gardner’s test showed a saturation of 64 percent, he said, adding that anything over 50 percent was lethal.

Mr. Zúñiga said that other tests were also performed, including drug tests, but they were all negative. He said the autopsy report found telltale signs of carbon monoxide poisoning on the organs, and added that the case could be considered closed.

Miller and his family were staying at a resort in Costa Rica. The family said in a statement released through the Yankees last month that Miller had died on March 21 “after falling ill along with several other family members while on vacation.”

“He passed away peacefully in his sleep,” the family said.

The authorities said the family was staying in Manuel Antonio, a resort area on the central Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.

The authorities said at a news conference on Wednesday that the family’s room at the resort was next to a room with machinery and said that contamination may have occurred as a result.

The resort where the family stayed, Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Resort, did not respond to a request for comment after the toxicology results.

I guess we really should bring carbon monoxide detectors while on vacation, and refuse rooms adjacent to utility room. It does not seem to be a low rent resort, why don't they install these cheap devices? It is not the first time a tourist was killed in these rooms.

Wow, it is a $700-$1300/night dig. I hope they are sued to their last penny.
