Sports presenter Charlie Webster fights for her life in a Rio hospital after contracting rare form of malaria

British TV presenter Charlie Webster is currently fighting for her life  in a Brazilian hospital after being struck down by a rare strain of  malaria on her way to the Olympic Games. She made her way to the  Brazilian city as part of a team who cycled 3,000 miles from the UK over  a six-week period to raise money for a cancer charity...

The  33-year-old former Sky Sports News anchor began feeling unwell while  attending the opening ceremony but put it down to dehydration - even  tweeting pictures of herself from a hospital bed. Although the doctors  identified the very rare malaria strain she contracted, her publicist  revealed that her condition has since deteriorated. Charlie is now in an  induced coma and on a life support machine.

Webster's  family, including her mother and brother, have flown to be at her  bedside as she said to be receiving the right treatment in one of the  best hospitals in Rio de Janeiro.
