Betsy Arakawa Searched COVID Symptoms Before Hantavirus Death

News summary

Betsy Arakawa, wife of actor Gene Hackman, died from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome on February 12, after a period of researching flu-like symptoms online. In the days leading up to her death, she searched for information related to COVID-19 symptoms, expressing concern about dizziness and nosebleeds. Gene Hackman, who was also unwell, reportedly suffered from heart disease and Alzheimer's and may not have been aware of his wife's passing prior to his own death a week later. An investigation revealed their home in Santa Fe was infested with rodents, which likely contributed to Betsy's illness. The couple's bodies were discovered on February 27, alongside their dog, which succumbed to dehydration and starvation. The findings have raised questions about the health risks associated with rodent infestations in residential areas.
