The press conference was interrupted by Lula himself, who appeared in the auditorium as a surprise, already dressed and ready to leave the hospital, but wearing a Panama hat to, as he admitted, hide the treatment due to his vanity.

The president made a short statement to thank him for the care, admit that he was scared when he found out about the amount of liquid (blood) spilled on his head and warn that he is ready to work and resume his activities as president.

Roberto Kalil, chief medical officer who led the intervention and care procedure for the president, clarified that the leader will be able to resume his normal activities as president, but that he will have to work moderately for at least the next 60 days and that his physical activities will be completely restricted.

“I want to thank God, who has taken care of me in a very generous way. He took care of me when I had cancer in 2012. He took care of me when I was flying over Mexico for 5 hours, a delicate moment. And God was very generous in taking care of me when I fell in the bathroom “said Lula through a post he shared on his social network account X (formerly Twitter).
