Mikheil Saakashvili has not tested positive for coronavirus

According to the head of the Empathy Center, Mariam Jishkariani, the state of health of the third president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, is serious and may worsen if he is not transferred abroad.

As she told reporters before visiting Mikheil Saakashvili at the Vivamed clinic, Saakashvili still has a fever, which presumably indicates that an infectious-intoxication process is underway.

“The state of health is monitored, various experts come. The conclusion comes to an end. The case is very difficult, we were met with a lot of resistance. Many experts are connected, as the state of health is serious. In practice, a complete diagnosis has not been carried out. The mode of detention will be his urgent transfer to a foreign university clinic, where the correct diagnosis and treatment will be carried out. We think the problem is diagnostics. The state of health is serious and is expected to get even worse. There is an increase in temperature, which indicates that somewhere there is an infectious-intoxication process, this is my opinion. An urgent translation, correct diagnosis and further treatment and rehabilitation are needed,” Jishkariani said.

According to her, the cause of the elevated temperature has not been established. As for the test for coronavirus, according to Mariam Jishkariani, the test is negative and Mikheil Saakashvili does not have coronavirus.
