Alex Zanardi's conditions are "unstable", which is why he was transferred to the intensive care unit of the San Raffaele hospital in Milan.
The Health Management of the Valduce Hospital in Como, where the champion had been admitted on July 21, announced this. “After appropriate consultations with Dr. Franco Molteni, Head of the Department of Specialized Rehabilitation Villa Beretta, a facility affiliated with the Valduce Hospital – the managers of the facility announced – the transfer was arranged, with adequate means and adequate assistance, to the San Raffaele in Milan”.
Zanardi was the victim of a very serious accident last June 19th near Pienza while he was taking part in a race with his handbike, colliding with a truck. His condition immediately appeared very serious. After two operations and moments of fear he seemed to have stabilized enough that the doctors at the Siena hospital decided to begin the rehabilitation process in another facility. Now a new obstacle. The champion's battle continues.
