Boy bitten by highly venomous brown snake on school trip survives thanks to teachers' quick thinking
A 12-year-old boy survived a deadly snake bite thanks to the life-saving actions of his teachers.
Deakin Hawke, a student at Drouin Primary School in Victoria, Australia, had been on a week-long school trip to Canberra in Australia in October when he was bitten by an eastern brown snake,He collapsed and stopped breathing within minutes of being bitten twice on the leg by the snake, which is considered the second most venomous snake in the world.
Another teacher started CPR to revive the boy while another called for an ambulance. The school's principal Brad Wheller told"We ran over to where the kids were playing and could quite easily see there was a snake," he said. He snapped a picture and went to confirm to the other teachers that they were dealing with a snake bite and called emergency services.
The youngster was taken to Canberra Hospital, where he stayed in the intensive care unit, and he has since made a full recovery,reported. Deakin returned to school last week after being off for a month because of a reaction he had to the anti-venom he was given to counteract the snake bite.
