“On Friday September 30, Silvio Berlusconi had a mild illness while landing in New York City,” his physician Alberto Zangrillo announced in a statement on Monday.

“After a series of in-depth tests, which ruled out cardiovascular problems, Berlusconi was discharged on October 3 with the indication of staying in New York under medical surveillance.”

Zangrillo is said to have organised Berlusconi’s trip to the same hospital for the purposes of post-operative care after the Rossoneri supremo underwent heart surgery last year.
