Hadassah Hospital says PLO’s Erekat in serious but stable condition

Hadassah Hospital Ein Kerem in Jerusalem confirms it is treating senior PLO official Saeb Erekat, who is infected with COVID-19, after a deterioration in his health.

The hospital says Erekat was brought to the hospital in serious condition and required oxygen. He remains in serious but stable condition, it adds.

“Mr. Erekat is receiving professional treatment at a high level like all serious coronavirus patients at Hadassah and the staff will do everything to cure him,” hospital chief Zeev Rothstein is quoted saying in a statement.
