	abstract = {This report was about a 22-year-old male patient who died from acute and severe septicemic melioidosis. He was initially misdiagnosed as having pneumonia in a local hospital in Hainan but transferred to Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital after ineffective treatment and detection of Burkholderia pseudomallei in his blood sample. Unfortunately, right diagnosis and antibiotic treatment of melioidosis had been delayed so that his condition deteriorated rapidly out of control. The victim’s death highlights the importance of early diagnosis and effective antibiotic treatment of septicemic melioidosis in areas where this disease is prevalent.},
