Archbishop Anastasios of Albania is currently on his way to Evangelismos Hospital in Athens due to a deterioration in his health. He is being transported from Tirana to Athens on an Air Force aircraft with a trained medical team from EKAB (Emergency Aid Centre). The aircraft departed around 18:30 and is expected to land in Elefsina at approximately 19:30 Greek time. Upon arrival, he will be transferred to the hospital by ambulance.
According to Protothema.gr, the Archbishop’s health worsened as the virus he was fighting developed into an infection. He also experienced bleeding in his digestive system, requiring immediate transfer to Athens for specialized medical care.
Recent updates suggest that Archbishop Anastasios will be admitted to a regular ward at Evangelismos Hospital, contrary to earlier reports indicating a need for intensive care.
Further updates on his condition will be provided as he undergoes medical treatment in Athens.
