Michael D Higgins spends second night in hospital for treatment
Irish President Michael D Higgins has spent a second night in hospital for treatment. The President was admitted to hospital after feeling unwell on Monday evening. He underwent a series of tests, and doctors decided to keep him in for further monitoring.
The President’s office released a statement saying, “President Higgins is in good spirits and is being looked after well by the medical staff. We expect him to make a full recovery soon.” The statement also expressed gratitude for the well-wishes received from the public.
This is not the first time President Higgins has faced health issues while in office. In 2017, he underwent an elective medical procedure, which was successful.
The medical team treating the President has not disclosed specific details about his condition but assured that he is stable and responding well to treatment.
The President’s hospitalization has led to speculation about the effect on his upcoming schedule and duties. However, the official statement did not provide any information regarding this matter.
The public will be updated on the President’s health status as new information becomes available.
