Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been rushed to a hospital,
apparently suffering from a high fever and severe cough.
Netanyahu
was hospitalized Tuesday at Jerusalem's Hadassah Medical Center after
his personal physician, Dr. Tzvi Berkowitz, concluded that he had not
sufficiently recovered from an illness he had started battling two weeks
ago. Berkowitz said the prime minister's condition had worsened.
Berkowitz
confirmed to Israeli media that Netanyahu, 68, will undergo a series of
medical examinations that require hospitalization.
In
mid-March, Netanyahu had been homebound, holding government meetings at
his private residence. In a statement at that time, the prime
minister's office said Netanyahu had contracted strep throat and that
Berkowitz had prescribed medications and home rest.
