According to the doctors who treat him, former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi’s health is improving “gradually and steadily”. The therapies the 86-year-old is undergoing have produced the expected results, so one can be “cautiously optimistic”, said Monday in a statement signed by his doctors at the San Raffaele clinic in Milan.
Monitored organ function has improved accordingly over the past 48 hours. Berlusconi has been in intensive care in hospital since Wednesday with pneumonia and chronic leukemia.
The right-wing populist politician, who led four governments with interruptions from 1994 to 2011, was admitted to the clinic in Milan five days ago. Initially, there were cardiovascular and respiratory problems. After it became known that Berlusconi suffered from chronic leukemia, Italian media reported that he had already started chemotherapy. He also did not comment on this in the now second official bulletin of his personal physician Alberto Zangrillo on Monday. (saw/sda/dpa)
