The Toxic Lady's Mysterious Case

Imagine drawing a patient's blood and seeing glass crystals floating inside the syringe.

In 1994, a woman named Gloria Ramirez was rushed to an Emergency Room in California.

She was awake, but confused. When nurses cut her shirt open, they noticed an

oily sheen on her skin that smelled like fruit and garlic. But the horror started when they drew her

blood. The syringe filled with a strange, ammonia-like odor, and actual crystals

were visible in the red fluid. Suddenly, the nurse fainted. The doctor developed

breathing problems. Within minutes, 23 medical staff members had collapsed, some seizing on

the floor. The hospital declared a biological emergency and evacuated the building.
