Alfred Murray: Interview

Mr. Murray can give only minimal history and claims to have had abdominal pain and a cough for a few days, but cannot be more specific.

His old record reveals him to have had a long history of alcohol use with many E.R. visits during binge episodes, but no admissions for any acute or chronic medical complications.

He is on no medications, and lives alone.
