“Lobar pneumonia (pneumonia) is an infection of the lung caused by bacteria,” the report reads. “Immune cells invade the air spaces (where oxygen is taken in), and this is accompanied with necrosis (death of cells).

According to the report, Porter went to the doctor days before she died with “cold/flu-like symptoms.” A nurse also visited her home and gave her “saline solution with vitamins.”
