Overview
- The Sanatorio Mater Dei said the presenter re-entered the hospital on Friday for a "cuadro compatible con neumopatía" and will remain for studies, treatment and monitoring.
- Her readmission came five days after she was discharged following a respiratory bronquial and viral episode that left her with a persistent cough.
- The family issued a statement thanking medical staff and asking for privacy while the medical team evaluates her condition and prepares a follow-up report on Monday.
- Production confirmed Juana Viale will continue to stand in for Legrand on the program while doctors monitor her, temporarily pausing the presenter’s on-air duties.
- Coverage notes that "neumopatía" is a general term for lung disease and that Legrand’s advanced age and prior cardiac procedures raise the risks of complications from respiratory infections.
