The medical board formed by the government to check up on the health of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia has not found any ‘pressing concerns’, says Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) Hospital Director Brigadier General Abdullah-Al-Harun.
The doctors on the team recommended that the BSMMU facilities would suffice if Khaleda wishes to be admitted to a hospital.
The hospital director said this after the team handed over the report.
Asked about the findings of the board, Abdullah-Al-Harun said: “They say there were no major new health issues.”
Khaleda had previously been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, he said. She experiences pains in her arms and back because of it and the doctors have made arrangements for it, he said.
The 73-year-old did not have any heart, blood pressure, or diabetic issues, Abdullah-Al-Harun said, reports bdnews24.
“The medical board has treated her. If she still believes that she needs to be admitted to a hospital, then she can be admitted to a hospital with disciplined care,” Abdullah-Al-Harun said citing the members of the medial team.
In that case they recommended that she be taken to BSMMU, according to Abdullah-Al-Harun.
