"She had taken malaria tablets - but they failed to protect her from the mosquito-borne illness, which in extreme cases can KILL"
"...she would be kept in hospital for another night and could remain under close observation for up to two weeks. Her involvement in the rest of this series of The X Factor is in serious doubt"
Oh my god how they are milking it. I really hope she's okay and malaria is serious but they make it like she's on the verge of dying. :rolleyes:

Millions of people die from malaria every year. The type that causes the acute symptoms (like she has) is the one that is most often fatal.Of course in under developed countries they won't have access to the level of intensive care that we have here and she should recover but it may well be a very slow process.
In the acute phase people are very very ill. Malaria can cause permanent brain damage and other seriious long term problems so that is why people are treating it so seriously. I don't think she'll be on X-Factor any time soon.
I am a nurse and often advise on malaria tablets, which if taken correctly usually prevent malaria, However it is vitally important that they are taken as prescribed and continued for a time when out of the risk areas because if you are bitten on the last day of your holidays and then stop taking the tablets from the following day, you are in big trouble.
A lot of people I see in my travel clinics are more concerned about getting obscure injections like rabies and other stuff and tend to leave malaria protection way down on their list of priorities. But, as previous poster says, it is a major killer and a horrible condition to catch because you never get rid of it. I used to work with someone many years ago who caught it whilst working abroad and every so often they would get another flare up of it and end up in hospital.
Hideous woman, Its a load of old bullshine. How many (conflicting) stories will we get today I wonder?
Im pretty sure in the one.whole.week she was "forced" to take off from collapsing at a photoshoot, (while it seems at the same time she was in bed for 48hrs "trying to sleep") she will make a "dramatic" recovery and the "nations sweetheart" will be back on the X Factor to promote her new album, I mean to judge. But remember if she doesnt it will somehow be ALL ASHLEYS FAULT.
So, this is now all over the 'news' because it is a 'tragedy' that has befallen a 'celebrity'.
Ultimately though it highlights one of two things - either Ms. Cole believes her (expensively bought but with a good rate of return) publicity that she is superhuman and that she doesn't need to take the treatments that the rest of the human race does, or she wasn't smart enough herself to realise the necessity.
Big fail on her part - zero sympathy from here.
And don't fergawdsakes someone tell me she was badly advised. Millions of people travel to these places every year and the NHS advice on malaria tablets keeps them perfectly safe.....
Me too. I'm suspicious because the story yesterday was that this was due to gastroenteritis brought on by her 'punishing' workload. However people were finding the idea of her working harder than someone doing 14 hours a day in a factory to be ridiculous and mildly offensive. Now, 24 hours after that story she "doctors have diagnosed malaria" though according to the previous article "tests showed" she had gastroenteritis.
If people keep bringing up comments that she climbed a mountain for Comic Relief to get mosquito nets for Africa but failed to take precautions against malaria herself, tomorrow she might have something else.
She will never be rid of it if she has got malaria. It will cause great problems to her carrer as it can return at any time and knock you out for days. I had a teacher who had caught it and over the years he had to take days off work as it had flared up again.
Quite surprised to see an article alleging that Cheryl has malaria. Surely rather different to gastroenteritis/stomach flu? Surely very different to exhaustion? I agree with spkx she obviously needs a better doctor.
On the other hand, the thought of having malaria is terrifiying and if it's all true I truly wish her a speedy recovery.
Malaria tablets don't stop you getting malaria - all they do is 'limit' the symptoms - which of course sometimes means people have malaria, don't know and they can't fight it off whilst it's being masked and then it kicks in big time.
I think with tests you sometimes need to know what to test for to get an accurate diagnoses. I can see exhaustion and stomach ache could easily be many illnesses
Malaria is a serious illness, killing over a million worldwide including a few Britains. I'm far from a fan of Cheryl but wish her well
Far from hyping it up I think her camp have kept quite quiet all things considered. Celebs may hype up many things but to fake a illness as serious as malaria would finish a person's career

I thought she climbed the mountain for publicity and the mozzy nets were thrown in as a bonus
I don't believe it at all. Its all just for publicity - has she got a new single/album coming out :rolleyes:
To say the malaria tablets didn't work is another serious statement to make IMO.
Anyway, now she doesn't have to face two women from 2 of the worlds biggest girl groups who she has slammed.
Nicole from PCD and Kelly from Destinys child.

I hope she makes a good recovery.

Why, do you think eating cures malaria?

IF it is true she really should find a new doctor, if he's diagnosing her with essentially a tummy ache when it's malaria it's quite concerning...

(It's also the most read story currently, ahead of the gun man on the lose threatening to kill cops... shocking)

She still annoys the bones off me though

Something about Destinys child copying GA.
It was a topic here I think ages ago. 2008 maybe.
ha ha ha ha, yes because the most successful and talented Girl Group of all time really needed to copy some scantlily clad, talentless fools.
For God sakeIi never liked Cheryl but I actually did not have her down as a bitch, obviously I was wrong!
