Nov 03rd, 2014 - 09:29 am - Link - Report abuse 0Seems she is falling apart, not only her ineptitude in running a country but her health.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 10:08 am - Link - Report abuse 0Fortunately, they've got a CT scanner at the Otamendi hospital, so if she's contracted Ebola they'll fix it with that. Imagine if she'd been in the Falklands!
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 10:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0Phew...... that's lucky.

Nov 03rd, 2014 - 11:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0She is so lucky to have this ailment now, just think in a years time the lights go out as they will have no US$.to import oil, oh forgot their friendly neighbour Venuzuela will give it to them on tick unless they are broke.
What a load of Botox
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 11:24 am - Link - Report abuse 0Surprised they haven't issued a statement yet blaming the CIA. ;)
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 11:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0She just loves publicity.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 12:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Encephalitis?.....Menengitis? Cranial Abscess? Just wishful thinking
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 12:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0sweet dreams just the same
Maybe she is just a drama queen and hoping for the sympathy? I don't know but do we know of any other leader of a country that spends so much time off sick?
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 01:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0”Cabinet chief Jorge Capitanich said that “the truth is the president is in extraordinary good health, and very active in her daily duties” Whilst CFK is seen being admitted to hospital.
it is another plastic surgery and counting.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 02:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0the witch looks like a monster with those droopy plastic cheeks.
the worst thing is she thinks she will look great after her 100th surgery.
A brain aneurysm would explain a lot.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 02:22 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A whole lot.
I'm sure a multitude are rooting for the fever.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 02:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0glad to see that the bashing mob is wishing her a speedy recovery.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 02:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Distraction.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 03:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0rotting roadkill: Pay your debts.
What kind of diagnosis is that? An infectious fever.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 03:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Since when are “fevers” infectious? I guess if you get close enough some of the excess body heat can warm you... But I never heard of a fever transmitting itself to someone else.
But... maybe thats typical of their medical capabilities. Probably trained in Cuba.
If they do CT scan perhaps it will reveal that actually The Presidents Brain is Missing!
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 03:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As someone said, its probably another nip and tuck
16 Rick from Maryland: NO, NO, NO!!! Doctors, Medicine and Treatment is AMONG THE BEST IN THE WORLD IN CUBA! Get your references straight when criticising trash like Argentina.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 03:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Don't anyone attempt to blame the current rotting roadkill predicament on Cretina's health. The next 100 in the political line of perionist succession are just a ignorant as she is and could/will continue down the same assured path of self distruction.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 03:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Surely she is simply a front woman for some sinister cabal. Her past is catching up with her. CFK ought to know that if she cannot take the heat she should get out of the kitchen
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 04:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The writing is on the wall for her - Karma is catching up
Perhaps the doctors in Argentina (or more likely the Argentine government) don't know that a fever is a symptom of an infection (such as a virus or bacteria) and isn't in itself infectious.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 04:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If they are going to concoct ailments for their President you'd think they'd at least put some effort into it.
10-1 that she'll try to pass it off as a CIA plot to try and infect her with ebola or some such thing.
Argentina lists endemic:
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 06:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Hepatitis A

... but it may be a cold.
It's plastic surgery. Fortunately she has trained a whole lot of YES men to parrot what she normally says so the country will not miss her during her absence.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 06:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Does syphilis cause a fever?
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 08:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It is infectious. And does cause personality changes and erratic behaviour in the tertiary phase.
Sra. Presidenta, my respect and my wishes for a speedy recovery beyond the differences.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 08:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Geof: secure in your country there are no diseases.
Rabies does not exist in Argentina due to the vaccination campaign
Malaria, dengue and yellow fever are endemic in Brazil, Paraguay and Bolivia, and the few cases reported in Argentina is from people who came from the countries mentioned.
Hemorrhagic Fever: yes, there exists in Argentina and is transmitted by mouse urine: Argentina developing a vaccine for this a long time ago and cases that occur are very rare.
CURRENTLY, THE DISEASE THAT FACE THE ARGENTINA AND IS DIFFICULT TO CURE IS FALKLANDITIS MIXED WITH ENGLHISTITIS AND WAS ORIGINATED IN ENGLAND, AND WAS SPREAD WORLDWIDE FOR THE CENTURIES 17, 18 AND 19.
TODAY IN MOST COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD WAS ERADICATED, EXCEPT IN AN ARGENTINE ISLANDS, LOCATED 600KM. TO EAST FROM TIERRA DEL FUEGO (LOLLLLLL).
#22 She's been about a bit so it could be any of those, particularly those that lead unpredictable and irrational behaviour, but my money is still on cosmetic surgery.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 08:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0She is infected with Malvinitis....
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 08:46 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It is a brain disease where you believe any shit your government tells you despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. You believe that anything you steal is rightfully yours, anyone who points out your lies is a traitor....and most of all you are really really stupid....
my money is on rabies
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 08:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0at home my money is on popcorn
The Presidential Medical Unit (sic) has just announced it's sigmoiditis, which is an inflammation of the sigmoid colon.
Nov 03rd, 2014 - 11:53 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Don't all rush at once ....
Who is responsable?? Was it Capitanich?? Was it Kicillove?? Was it Boudou?? Was it Mr Think??
Nov 04th, 2014 - 12:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0Looks like someone has a gun barrel pressed against her throat, in that picture!
Nov 04th, 2014 - 01:24 am - Link - Report abuse 0This sounds like a case of the vapors.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 02:35 am - Link - Report abuse 0It's the first recorded case of sigmoiditis causing somebody to lose their voice.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 10:18 am - Link - Report abuse 0Patients who are recuperating from Turkey-Neck plastic surgery are advised to not speak.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 11:03 am - Link - Report abuse 0Hernan #25: I know these diseases intermittently flare up; the literature calls them endemic - like Lyme Disease in the USA, which only really flares during the hunting season when ticks attack the stalkers.
Actually Geoff Lyme tends to flare more in the summer months when people are in shorts and out and about. I fact my son son contacted it this past year.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 12:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Poppy,
Nov 04th, 2014 - 01:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0tough on your son.
It is often hard to get rid of.
Make sure he keeps on top of it as it can get nasty in late stage if untreated.
They say it was caught very early. He went on a major dose of anti-biotics for an extended period. He seems okay, but time is the real indicator. When it first appeared on the screen, some people really was damaged.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 01:19 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I got it in February. My sister had to make a trip overseas and asked me to tend her farm. One of her goats delivered early in the morning and I had to help her.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 02:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Afterwards I went to take a shower and sure as shit there was a deer tick stuck to my stomach.
I pulled it off. Several hours later I started to feel bad. Checked my stomach and sure enough there was that “bullseye” rash.
Within a couple hours I was so sick I had to call my wife to drive out and pick me up. I was too sick to drive! It was the sickest I have ever been.
Antibiotics for two weeks. That was 10 years ago. No problem at all since then.
I never asked, but now I wonder if I'm immune. I spend a lot of time in the woods. Pulled several off over the years....
Certainly not related, but since then I've never had the flu either!
It's very well possible Rick. Like the old vaccinations with live portion of the virus. In my 1st year in the Army there was an swine flu outbreak and we all got inoculated (no choice) and they were live virus then.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 03:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If CFK really is suffering from ‘sigmoiditis’, this is a type of autoimmune disease affecting the lower bowel adjacent to the rectum. The inflammation and ulceration of the colon is really painful and you get a very loose bowel – belly cramps and explosive diarrhoea and flatulence - so presidential meetings can be frequently disrupted.
Nov 04th, 2014 - 05:31 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You get it flaring up from emotional stress; also from disease and from food allergies.
As well as a bloody flux, weight loss, fever and debility can make presidential life very difficult. At its worst drug treatment can enlarge and explode the gut (Toxic Mega Colon, TMC), needing heavy surgery.
You have to feel for a woman who has so many diseases and disorders.
More so than any other president, she is past her sell-by date.
So, “explosive flatulence” from both ends now!

Not sure on that one, but I am betting that she has gone down with a slight case of Ebola

Nov 05th, 2014 - 12:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0I have just been informed - by one who knows - that this condition is often aquired by people who indulge in too much colonic irrigation. You know... flushing the shit out of a person. That and anal sex... aka 'getting fucked up the bum'.
