Friends tell Russian media Samsonova had not consumed any water for six years before her death, and was refusing to get medical help after she was bedbound.
One friend told 116.ru: "Ms Samsonova’s idle starvation was causing her to melt before our eyes, but she believed everything was fine.
Seems similar to dying in a car crash because you didn’t wear seat-belt. By not taking basic precautions her body wasn’t prepared to survive something that many others can. To be fair- the survival rate for untreated cholera is only around 40% I just don’t think her starting point of “slow starvation” was doing her any favors.
Yikes, pretty mean to call her an idiot. Seems like a high probability she was suffering from an eating disorder and/or other mental health issues. Most people don’t starve themselves to death out of stupidity.
Saw this story. Title should be ‘Idiot dies of starvation after not consuming vital nutrients.’
I’ve been vegan for years, I respect vegans who take their diet seriously, but this woman didn’t. She took ideology seriously.
You can’t just eat anything and expect to be ok.
The title should be “Influencer dies after contracting cholera-like disease and refusing medical help.”

probably a good idea to read the comment chain before replying.
The term you’re looking for is “mental illness”.

Would it have killed her if:

This might be the stupidest comment ive seen on this website.
It is the impact that kills you. That is proven by the fact that people fall from buildings and don’t die.
And the person never statet that it is unrelated. The opposite really.
You are not that sharp aren’t you? Otherwise why aren’t you able to understand this tiny bit of text correctly?
Are you suggesting a Murdoch-owned press might have printed something misleading?!?!
Not to brag but I pretty much eat anything and get by…
