A WOMAN claims she was left fighting for her life after an all-inclusive holiday as staff "didn't wash their hands". Olivia Hartley says she nearly died after coming home from a £1,400 EasyJet holiday to Hurghada in Egypt last September. The 28-year-old, who lives in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire , was holidaying with her fiance Thomas Winn, 31, at a four-star resort for a week when the pair began to feel unwell.
On the plane home, Olivia claims her partner Thomas vomited "six times" while she began experiencing sickness and diarrhoea 48 hours after returning home. Unable to keep any food or water down for three days, Olivia was hospitalised with dehydration and told by doctors that her liver and kidney function was abnormal. Doctors told Olivia that it was "very likely" she was infected with Hepatitis A - a liver infection that is spread in the poo of an infected person.
Olivia is certain she caught the deadly virus from the hotel - which she chose not to name - claiming food hygiene at the resort was "terrible". Medics were so concerned that they warned Olivia that she may have to undergo a liver transplant if her condition does not improve. Luckily, Olivia made a recovery - but is still suffering the effects of the liver and kidney injury with concerns she may still need a transplant in the future.
