According to Sinchew, the cause of Hsu’s death was reported by her family as flu and pneumonia. However, the medical diagnosis of some Taiwanese doctors suggested that Hsu may have died of sepsis. This conclusion is said to be consistent with the initial information given by her family. Xie Runping,

deputy director of the Department of Intensive Care at Yangzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, said that sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to infection, accompanied by organ dysfunction. Pneumonia can be a severe systemic inflammatory response. Sepsis is dangerous but not irreversible and can be treated symptomatically, with ventilator support or ECMO. In general, as long as treatment is timely, young patients and patients without underlying diseases rarely die from it. The doctor said that if Hsu’s blood oxygen level was only 89%, this was a case of severe respiratory failure and required immediate treatment. Additionally, Barbie Hsu’s history of epilepsy – which she previously disclosed – did not actually directly affect the flu.

According to Orientdaily, on February 6, Barbie Hsu’s ashes will be brought back to Taiwan by her husband, DJ Koo. Her younger sister, Barbie Hsu, will return to Taiwan on February 4 but will keep her exact schedule a secret. Sources say Barbie Hsu is currently physically and mentally exhausted from the pain of her sister’s passing. When the local doctor informed her that Barbie Hsu’s first aid was ineffective, she could not accept the news of her sister’s death and cried until she collapsed to the ground in the hospital.
