Aung San Suu Kyi's Health Crisis: Imprisoned and Denied Care

Aung San Suu Kyi's life may be at risk due to serious gum disease and other health problems, according to her son Kim Aris. She has been unable to eat and has experienced vomiting and dizziness while being denied access to medical care. Aris expressed concern for her well-being, especially considering the brutal treatment of political prisoners in Myanmar. He has been unable to contact her since her detention in February 2021, and previous periods of detention allowed for communication and visits. Aris dismissed reports of her being moved to house arrest and called for her release or urgent medical treatment.
