Zac Efron was reportedly hospitalized with a life-threatening infection
Photo: Steven Ferdman/PMC Zac Efron reportedly contracted a serious infection while filming his ominously named show, Killing Zac Efron, in Papua New Guinea last week. According to Australia’s Sunday Telegraph, a medevac crew airlifted the actor to Brisbane, then rushed him to St. Andrew’s War Memorial Hospital in Spring Hill, a nearby suburb.
Efron’s doctors reportedly allowed him to return to Los Angeles on Christmas Eve after he spent multiple days undergoing treatment. Typhoid is life-threatening, has a seven-to-ten-day recovery period, and is transmitted through water or food contaminated by the feces of an infected person. It typically announces itself with a sustained, high-grade fever and requires antibiotics.
“I tend to thrive under extreme circumstances and seek out opportunities that challenge me on every level,” Efron said in a statement announcing the show in November. “I am excited to explore any uncharted territory and discover what unexpected adventure awaits.”
