Brazil's President Lula, 79, Moves to Semi-Intensive Care After Surgeries on December 10 and 12, Expected to Leave Hospital by December 17
Dec 13, 2024, 11:41 AM
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, 79, has been moved from intensive care to semi-intensive care at the Sírio-Libanês Hospital in São Paulo following two successful surgeries to address a brain hemorrhage. The first surgery, performed on December 10, involved draining the hematoma, while a second procedure on December 12 aimed to embolize the meningeal arteries to prevent further bleeding. Medical reports indicate that Lula is lucid, oriented, and has been able to eat and walk around the hospital. His doctors expect him to be discharged from the hospital by early next week, potentially as soon as Tuesday, December 17. Lula has been actively involved in government matters during his hospitalization, communicating with allies in Congress. Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India expressed his well wishes for Lula’s recovery, stating he was pleased to hear that the surgery went well.
