00:00A former Bolivian president, Luis Arce, was transferred on Wednesday to Arcoiris Hospital in La Paz to begin a new
00:06cancer treatment.
00:07Arce left San Pedro prison under police guard and was later taken by ambulance to the medical center.
00:13His lawyer, Fernando Rivadeneira, explained that the decision to transfer him to hospital was due to the reappearance of pains
00:21that had previously been under control.
00:23The Defense Council indicated they are seeking to determine whether this is a reactivation of the disease or another medical
00:29condition.
00:30Luis Alberto Arce-Catacora was president of Bolivia from November 8, 2020 to November 8, 2025.
00:37After leaving the presidency, he was sent to pre-trial detention as part of an investigation into alleged her colitis
00:43in the management of resources of the indigenous fund.
00:51On admission, the patient was stable, hemodynamically, and with stable vital signs, according to the impression we had on his
00:58initial reception.
01:03For the following hours and days, we will be assessing him gradually, given that his underlying diagnosis, as is publicly
01:09known,
01:13It is a cancer of the renal tract, mainly the right kidney, which has already been managed with chemotherapy in
01:19the sister republic of Brazil.
