Information about the hospitalization of the Minister of Health was confirmed to Seznam Zprávám by department spokesman Ondřej Jakob.
“The information I have is fine. I assume that he will return to the work program in a matter of days,” said Jakob.
A spokesman for the department did not want to give details about the nature of the intervention. According to Seznam Zpráv sources, however, there is speculation about an appendectomy. The minister still remains in hospital.
