More than 60 doctors have written an open letter saying they fear Julian Assange’s health is so bad that the WikiLeaks founder could die inside a top-security British jail.
The 48-year-old Australian is still fighting a US bid to extradite him from Britain on charges filed under the Espionage Act that could see him given a sentence of up to 175 years in a US prison.
In the letter to the British home secretary, Priti Patel, the doctors called for Assange to be moved from Belmarsh prison in southeast London to a university teaching hospital.
They based their assessment on “harrowing eyewitness accounts” of his 21 October court appearance in London and a 1 November report by Nils Melzer, the United Nations special rapporteur on torture.
Julian Assange to remain in jail pending extradition to US Read more The independent UN rights expert said Assange’s “continued exposure to arbitrariness and abuse may soon end up costing his life”.
Assange used WikiLeaks to publish classified military and diplomatic files in 2010 about US bombing campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq that proved highly embarrassing to Washington.
“We write this open letter, as medical doctors, to express our serious concerns about the physical and mental health of Julian Assange,” the doctors said in their 16-page open letter.
They said they had “concerns about Mr Assange’s fitness” to go through the full extradition hearing, which is set for February.
“Mr Assange requires urgent expert medical assessment of both his physical and psychological state of health,” the wrote.
“Any medical treatment indicated should be administered in a properly equipped and expertly staffed university teaching hospital (tertiary care).
“Were such urgent assessment and treatment not to take place, we have real concerns, on the evidence currently available, that Mr Assange could die in prison.”

Isn’t that why they’re doing this to him.
“ The 48-year-old Australian is still fighting a US bid to extradite him from Britain on charges filed under the Espionage Act that could see him given a sentence of up to 175 years in a US prison.”
I’m not a doctor, but if he gets 175 years, he will die in prison.
No empathy, no sympathy. Actions: Consequences.
What is the diagnosis? Surely with sixty attending physicians, there is a consensus.
If he just called himself a Whistleblower, he wouldn’t be in this mess today.
Meanwhile, Quid Pro Joe Biden the Groping Pedo, his Drug Addled Baby Daddy Son Hunter and Crooked Hillary all walk free.
And not a single one has actually sat down with him.

Not if he takes vitamins
>>>Julian Assange’s health is so bad he ‘could die in prison’<<<
And then we get all the good stuff about Hillary, Right?
Why don’t they continue visits from Pamela Anderson. It should straighten him up. I know it would me. LOL
Healthy or not no one's gonna leave after a 175 years... Can we assume Assange will hang himself from the top of a 6 foot bunk bed a la Epstein?
In like of our FBI and CIA being corrupt thugs... maybe we should take another look at his case. Same with the FBI kid in Russia...
Yeah but what do 4 out of 5 dentists have to say?

You’ll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with pepsodent.
exactly. Same as when Epstein was put on suicide watch list.
The deep state is alive and well in the UK
>>>So not only are they rendering medical opinions without examining him, but they’re rendering them without having even laid eyes on him. They’re just going off the descriptions given by other people.<<<
Where were these people when Schiff needed impeachment witnesses?
Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself
Yes, he could die of Foster-Epstein Syndrome.
It’s 100% fatal....................
In the UK?
They only have 4................
How sad. Nobody else ever died, I’m sure.
Someone wrote about a visit with him just a while back. It seems that Julian is very malnourished and mistreated. Because of the way he has been treated(Who knows what they put in his food as well). He has become confused and unable to carry on an intelligent conversation. Even if he does survive then he will be in no condition to talk about anything. I believe that is totally intentional.
He is scheduled for an Armancide anyway.
