Queen Elizabeth ’s husband, 99, was transferred from King Edward VII’s Hospital to St Bartholomew’s Hospital on Monday. In a statement, Buckingham Palace said, “Doctors will continue to treat him for an infection, as well as undertake testing and observation for a pre-existing heart condition,” adding, “The Duke remains comfortable and is responding to treatment but is expected to remain in hospital until at least the end of the week.”
Prince Philip was admitted to King Edward VII’s Hospital in London on Feb. 16 as a “precautionary measure” on the advice of his doctor “after feeling unwell.” The palace revealed last week that Prince William ’s grandfather was “receiving medical attention for an infection” and was “responding to treatment.”
