Milan: Alfredo Cospito has been transferred to San Paolo hospital in Milan
Written February 11, 2023

Alfredo Cospito, on hunger strike for 115 days, was transferred this afternoon from Opera prison to San Paolo hospital in Milan, in one of the rooms reserved for prisoners in 41 bis. It seems that Alfredo has been admitted to the ward of penitentiary medicine of the Milanese hospital on indications of the doctors of the clinical centre of Opera where he had been since January 30th.

Alfredo Cospito’s critical health conditions had already been reported by Andrea Crosignani, doctor on his side who had visited him precisely this Saturday morning in the prison of Opera. “He weighs 71 kilos and chili ed è at risk of cerebral oedema and potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmias.” This is what Crosignani referred to the lawyer Flavio Rossi Albertini after his visit today. But Alfredo is determined to go ahead with the protest. He is lucid and walks on his own two legs.

Although I tried to convince him to take potassium again to reduce the risk of these arrhythmias. The parameters are holding, but it takes little for the situation to precipitate without any particular warning signs”.
