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.

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.
Would it have killed her if:
