Vyacheslav Ovechkin, a pulmonologist at the RZD-medicine clinical hospital, commented on the improvement in the condition of the LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky, who was infected with Omicron and hospitalized at the Central Clinical Hospital.

The doctor found it difficult to predict how long it would take for a politician to fully recover from an illness. According to the specialist, the situation is complicated by getting on a ventilator.

“No one can say how much he will recover. His risks were very high initially, when he got on a ventilator with a large percentage of lung damage, ”Ovechkin explained to Evening Moscow. The pulmonologist also warned about the danger of bacterial complications joining, even if the person is on the mend.

The press service of the LDPR faction in the State Duma announced today that Zhirinovsky is recovering from the coronavirus.

The media previously reported that the politician’s lung damage reached 75%, and also that he was in serious condition.
