A month earlier, Harald fell ill during a private vacation with his wife on the resort island of Langkawi, Malaysia. There he underwent surgery and was given a temporary pacemaker due to a low heart rate.
Harald returned to Norway on a medical plane and was immediately taken to a hospital in Oslo. The king’s doctor, Bjørn Bendzsaid he had contracted an undetermined infection in Malaysia.
