Recent food poisoning to blame for Leonard Cohen collapse on stage in Spain
One of my favorite Kids in the Hall lines – they were a comedy troupe from Toronto – and one I use often is that the music of Leonard Cohen is the soundtrack for hell (or something like that).
But I wouldn’t wish food poisoning on anyone.
BBC News reports the 74-year-old singer is recovering after collapsing on stage during a concert in Valencia, Spain.
Cohen was taken to hospital as a precaution. He has been discharged and is said to have had food poisoning.
A band member told the crowd Cohen had suffered stomach cramps and vomiting fits.
Spanish soccer star Sisi sidelined with hepatitis A
It’s Oscar time and I can’t wait to see which celebrities have to get vaccinated for hepatitis A this year after the parties. But until Sunday, soccer seems to be the source of reminders to get vaccinated against hepatitis A, which is transmitted via human poop.
RC Recreativo de Huelva are set to be without Spain Under-21 midfielder Sisi (right) for at least the next six weeks after the 22-year-old was diagnosed with hepatitis A.
Sisi is not the first U21 international to contract hepatitis A this year. Germany's Ashkan Dejagah was diagnosed with the same condition in early February and his club – VfL Wolfsburg – are resigned to losing him for a "very long time".
