Gladys Ruiz-Final Exam

The death of Edgar Allan Poe is a pretty difficult case to understand. First of all in articles it says that Poe was found outside of an Alcoholic Stupor, which is a bar. It mentions that Poe was found drinking and got really drunk and that is what caused his death. In the other hand people have investigated that he was never drunk and he was wearing someones clothes and that he had gotten bitten or scratched and which lead him to rabies. Poe ended up in the hospital, he was really suffering while being there. His face was pale and he drenched with sweat.
Another way of stating Poe's case was false, that he did not get bitten or scratched and that it was a false lie. It also says that he had gotten drunk and that is how his life came to in end. It also mentions that if was a sign of a false and a weakness in the theory. What I think happend was that Edgar Allan was infected with rabies but never went for a check-up at the doctor so then one day he was walking by the bar and decided to go inside for some enjoyment and possibly got drunk and forgot that he got bitten until he had gotten to the hospital when they tested in positive of having rabies.
In other words Poe's case has a lot of other similarity symptoms, but yet those articles have their ways of stating the point of view of Poe's case. After all of the investigations and stuff yet we still don't know the real case of Edgar Allan Poe.
