SwedenS New Health Minister Collapses During First Press Conference
Stockholm, Sweden – Elisabeth Lann, who was appointed Sweden’s Minister of Health just yesterday, collapsed during a press conference today, according to reports from TF1 Info. The incident occurred shortly after she assumed her new role within the Krister Government, replacing Acko Ankarberg Johansson. Details surrounding the collapse remain limited, and Lann’s current condition is unknown.
Lann’s appointment came as Johansson announced her candidacy for a parliamentary mandate. A member of the Christian Democratic Party, Lann previously served as a Municipal Councilor for the City of Göteborg and held positions on the board of directors and executive committee of the Christian Democrats. The sudden collapse of the newly appointed minister raises questions about her health and potential impact on the Swedish healthcare system, particularly as the government navigates ongoing challenges related to immigration and integration policies, including recent proposals to assess the “values” of immigrants.Further updates on Lann’s condition and the government’s response are expected in the coming hours.
