Brazilian President, Jair Bolsonaro, is admitted to hospital after complaints of stomach pains after being plagued by a bout of hiccups for more than ten days.
The Brazilian President was admitted to the Armed Forces Hospital in Brasilia on Wednesday July 14.
According to an initial statement, doctors were examining his persistent hiccups.
Late it was reported that Dr Antonio Luiz Macedo, the surgeon who operated on the president after he was stabbed in the abdomen during the 2018 presidential campaign, made a decision to transfer him to Sao Paulo, where he will undergo more diagnosis to determine whether he might need emergency surgery.
The stabbing caused damage to his intestines as well as internal bleeding as a result, the president has been operated on on several occasions.
Shortly after he was transferred to Sao Paulo, the president posted on his Facebook page a photograph of himself smiling with eyes closed and lying in a hospital bed covered in cables and sensors.
