Silvio Soldán’s health raised all the alerts after it was learned that the 89-year-old driver had to be hospitalized after feeling unwell on the boat he took to travel to Colonia, while, according to reports, he had suffered a mild ischemic stroke while driving. a press conference in the neighboring country.
Soldán traveled to the city of Uruguay to present his show “Grandes Valores del Tango” (Great Values of Tango), on a tour that will take place in different cities of the country and, as Ángel de Brito told LAM (América): “He began to feel a little ill on the ferry and, when he arrived in Colonia, he was giving an interview for El País, a very long interview, one hour long. He talked and talked and began to feel ill. During the interview, he began to say, ‘I feel kind of sick’. They thought it was possible that he had a stroke because he was dizzy, with some strange symptoms.”
“Silvio was quickly transferred, treated with an ambulance and taken to a clinic. They got a pretty big scare. They tell me, literally, that they got a tremendous scare because Silvio is 89 years old. He is now resting, after all the photos he went to rest,” De Brito remarked.
According to information coming from Uruguay, the driver began to talk nonsense, so an ambulance arrived at the Bastion. He was transferred and was admitted to the Camec Colonia sanatorium and is now resting in the hotel.
“He is in Cologne, in his hotel, lying down. He wanted to come back today because he is touring with the tango show that he always does,” said De Brito.
Regarding the bad moment that the Argentine presenter experienced, the driver explained: “They went to hold the press conference and he began to look to the side asking for rescue, help. And he started to say at one point, ‘I feel bad, I feel bad,’ and then they got scared, they got a tremendous scare and called the ambulance.”
Soldán is planning an eight-city tour with singers Néstor Rolán and Alberto Bianco, and on Thursday he arrived in Colonia to sell the tour in Uruguay.
