Better Hospital

The letter was published by Fars News, an Iranian news agency.
The report did not indicate what date the letter was written by
the doctors or whether it was written after a Kaduna High Court
last week approved a leave for El-Zakzaky and his wife Zeenat,
to seek medicare in India.
Fars News quoted one of the signatories to the letter, Dr.
Pourrahim Najafabadi, as saying that Zakzaky needs to be cured
by an experienced medical team of physicians in a specialized
multi-specialty hospital outside Nigeria.
“With the current physical condition of the Sheikh, especially
the virulent lead poisoning, Sheikh’s life is seriously at risk
by delayed treatment. Meanwhile, there is a need for special
medical care even in case of complete medical treatment. There
is serious risk to Sheikh’s life if he is kept under detention,”
said Najafabadi, the founder and spokesperson of a group of
expert physicians who have volunteered to treat Sheikh Zakzaky.
Below is the full text of the letter:
“In the name of God, The healer
From the community of Doctors
To the President of the Republic of Nigeria, Mr. Buhari.
In the past several months, the world has constantly received
troubling news regarding the health of one of the prominent
figures in Nigeria, Shaikh Ibrahim Zakzaky. Both Skaikh Ibrahim
Zakzaky and his wife are kept in prison and the health status of
both of them is very alarming.
We have chosen to be doctors even after knowing that this job is
very difficult and troublesome, but we chose to save people’s
lives and preferred the health of the society over our personal
interests.
According to the medical reports regarding the health status of
Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky:
1. He is suffering from a total blindness in the left eye, and
is also suffering from vision problems in the right eye
including glaucoma and progressive macular atrophy. According to
the diagnosis of the visiting physicians, Shaikh Zakzaky will
lose his vision sooner or later if the current circumstances do
not change.
2. He has shown symptoms of Ischemic heart disease which can
lead to Myocardial Infraction.
3. He is also suffering from severe cervical spondylosis which
has resulted to nerve root compression and symptoms are
progressive causing insomnia.
4. The experiments show that he has heavy metal toxicity
including Lead and Cadmium. Laboratory tests that are performed
on May 31st, 2019 show that blood lead level is 171.94µg/dl.
Later on June 18th, 2019 this level was reported to be 231.48µg
while in the last laboratory test the blood lead level was three
times more than the toxicity level (grade 5 of poisoning).

ZakZaky
Based on the points highlighted above, Shaikh Ibrahim Zakzaky
should be transferred to a well- equipped medical center that
has Neuro-ophthalmologist, glaucoma specialist and low vision
expert, cardiologist, orthopedist and neurologist. Also he may
need to have a surgery to reduce intraocular pressure.
We, doctors of different nationalities cannot take the health of
any human for granted. This is something that is inherent in our
obligation as doctors. Ignoring the critical health status of
Sheikh Ibrahim Zakzaky can end up in irreparable consequences.
We request the government and parliament of Nigeria to
immediately transfer him to a well-equipped hospital to prevent
any unfortunate incidents.

Syria, Lebanon and Iraq
