On June 13, Carlos Saúl Menem entered the clinic in the neighborhood of Recoleta after suffering a picture of muscle weakness and low blood oxygen saturation, and began to suspect the possibility of having contracted coronavirus in the last time. However, doctors confirmed that it was a “right lung pneumonia, with some fluid in the pleura.” After having the corresponding swab, he was placed under intensive care, where he continued for several days until he began to show improvements. This Monday, June 29, he was discharged and returned home.

“The former president’s health is fine, he greatly improved his picture after the pneumonia he had,” his personal doctor, Luis De la Fuente, argued days ago. In addition, he spoke again on Radio Rivadavia and made it clear that Menem “must take care of his diabetes” and stressed: “Luckily he was never intubated and had no coronavirus, they were germs.” Let’s go see how he’s doing. Next week is his birthday and luckily he won’t be hospitalized,” the doctor said. Later, Zulema Menem, her daughter, made a social media post, celebrating the departure of the intenation and the return with her relatives, where she will spend her birthday.” At home.
