@noory106 I know I had it like 2 years ago, and they gave me shots when I went to the doctor's office

@limjunyong You are extremely lucky that nothing worse happened to you.

Sepsis (/ˈsɛpsɨs/, from Gr. σῆψις: the state of putrefaction or decay) is a potentially deadly medical condition that is characterized by a whole-body inflammatory state (called a systemic inflammatory response syndrome or SIRS) and the presence of a known or suspected infection.[1][2] The body may develop this inflammatory response by the immune system to microbes in the blood, urine, lungs, skin, or other tissues

That's terrible. I'm sorry to learn of your troubles.

My son is now 12 years old. When he was 2,5 years he had sepsis meningoccoccis. He was ok in one minut and in the other he was vometing and very palled. I saw the tiny marks on his chess and runned to the hospital. His Pedeatrician came right away and told that if i had taken any more time to go to the hospital he wouldnt have made it. It was horrible.
