On a June night in 2022, 16-year-old Jeremy Webb was camping with friends on the New South Wales Central Coast, north of Sydney, when he vomited after eating beef sausages.

Struggling to breathe, the teenager ran from the campground to knock on the window of a nearby camper van, and asked the occupants to call an ambulance. Then he collapsed.
