Bakhtawar Bhutto-Zardari, the daughter of former president Asif Ali Zardari, disclosed on Wednesday that her father was experiencing “post-Covid health issues.”
She claimed in a tweet that water was found close to Zardari’s lungs, for which she claimed a surgery had been carried out a month earlier.
The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairperson was not visible physically assisting flood victims, according to Bakhtawar’s further explanation. She also acknowledged everyone’s prayers.
The ex-president was transported to a private hospital in Karachi when his condition deteriorated, sources told The Express Tribune on Tuesday.
They said that Dr. Asim Hussain’s medical staff was examining the former president.
On the suggestion of his doctors, Zardari was also admitted to a private hospital in the port city the previous year.
Due to the strain and weariness from travelling for court appearances and the budget session, the former president “became unwell.”
Zardari was admitted to an intensive care unit of a private hospital in Clifton in October 2020 because he was apparently dealing with a chest infection and his blood sugar had become dangerously low.
Dr. Asim Hussian, the personal physician of the PPP co-chairperson, had claimed that Zardari was not feeling well and that a team of medical professionals was constantly watching him and doing his medical tests.
