Also Boris Johnson spoke on the affair of the health conditions of Queen Elizabeth, assuring the subjects that “as we speak His Majesty he’s back at work at his desk“. The British premier, on sight in a London vaccination center, then sent, on behalf of the entire government,” all possible best wishes “to the sovereign. Previously, a source had told the media that the queen, after the short hospitalization, he was “resting” and performing some “light” tasks. Words that are added to the official ones of Buckingham Palace, according to which the queen, who is now in Windsor Castle, is in “good spirit”.
The amount of public appearances and institutional tasks that are placed on the 95 years old Elisabetta, advised by doctors to cancel an official visit to Northern Ireland scheduled for this week, quickly became a topic of discussion in the UK. Buckingham Palace’s announcement regarding Elizabeth’s brief hospitalization on Wednesday, al King Edward VII’s Hospital of London, where she spent the night, raised the alarm bell regarding the advanced age and health conditions of the sovereign, which next year will celebrate the Platinum Jubilee, for its 70 years of reign.
Buckingham Palace was forced late Thursday evening to reveal the day before the Queen had entered the hospital to perform “preliminary exams”, after that the tabloid Sun had broken the news. The circumstance has clearly angered the media, who are now suspicious of the official versions of the Palazzo. And among the issues being debated is that of the border that separates the private sphere and the right to privacy of Elisabetta, from the need to know exactly the health conditions of the head of state.
It was from 2013 that the elderly queen, widowed last April, was not forced to spend a night in the hospital. Back then, it was gastroenteritis. Buckingham Palace also reported on “disappointment” with which the sovereign was forced to give up the official trip to Northern Ireland and the “reluctance” with which she accepted the doctors’ advice. Moreover, that Elisabetta does not intend to step aside in the least or slow down its institutional activity it is demonstrated by the polite but decisive way in which she refused in recent days the Elder of the Year award, which had been conferred on her by a magazine. “Old is whoever feels old”was his response.
