Report on the health of King Michael I
15 March 2016

The Press Office of His Majesty the King has been authorised to release the following communiqué:

The doctors at the medical clinic in Lausanne have consented that His Majesty King Michael I should be discharged, having been admitted seventeen days previously.

The King has arrived at his private residence, where he will continue to be kept under observation by the clinic’s medical team, as well as by the family’s doctors.

The King’s overall condition is stable. But given the seriousness of the diagnosis, treatment and recuperation will be of long duration and will require careful supervision.

Over the next few days, Princess Elena will remain at the side of her parents, King Michael I and Queen Anne.

A team of staff from the Royal Household of His Majesty the King have been sent to Switzerland to be with Their Majesties at their private residence.

The Custodian of the Crown is in constant contact with Their Majesties and the medical team. Her Royal Highness will continue to fulfil her public engagements in Romania and will soon return to Switzerland to be with Their Majesties.
