The Dutch Health Minister collapsed today in parliament because of ‘fatigue from intense weeks’ of working against the coronavirus crisis.
Dutch minister for medical care Bruno Bruins, 56, fell behind the speaker’s lectern while taking questions in parliament on the pandemic.
He was quickly helped to his feet by fellow ministers and later said he briefly passed out due to exhaustion from weeks of intense work.
“I was feeling faint from fatigue and intense weeks. I am feeling better now. I am going home now to rest this evening so I can return tomorrow to fight the corona crisis,” he said in a message on social media.
