Khaleda Zia responding to treatment: Dr Zahid
BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia's personal physician and BNP Standing Committee Member Dr AZM Zahid Hossain said that Khaleda Zia is responding to the treatment being provided by her medical team.
"Begum Khaleda Zia has been undergoing treatment in the CCU of Evercare Hospital since November 27 and is responding to the treatment being provided by the doctors," Dr. Zahid said at a press briefing outside the hospital around 12:30 pm today.
He added that advice is being sought from the medical board on whether her condition is suitable for travel abroad.
"There is no scope to take her abroad without the medical board's advice. A specialist medical team from the UK will arrive today. Taking her to London will be considered based on the opinion of the coordinated medical team," he said.
Expressing gratitude to international leaders and diplomats for their concern, Dr. Zahid said, "We thank the heads of many states and diplomats who are inquiring about Khaleda Zia's health and wishing her well."
He also urged the public to ignore rumors and rely only on official statements. "Do not pay heed to anyone's statements except mine and Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi. On behalf of the family and the party, we request that no rumors be spread regarding Begum Khaleda Zia's treatment," he said.
Dr. Zahid further mentioned that the government is providing continuous support for her treatment and called for the blessings of the people during this critical time, reports BSS.
