drol 11,956 Posted December 13, 2023 Soviet cult actress Larisa Luzhina sharply deteriorated due to heart disease, but refusing hospitalization. I begin to think Russian media heavily exaggerate celebrities health issues, as deaths to hospitalization ratio is close to zero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems a very common thing in Russian media that there's reports of a celeb being in hospital/very ill and then a day or two later it's denied. With Pakhmutova it went from serious heart attack to pneumonia to common cold, same with many celebs. Lots of Russian 50-something actors and actresses have also been hospitalised recently in "critical condition" within the last month and a day later it's reported that they were never that ill and were there due to a scheduled surgery or something similar. A rule I've started to trust with these Russian cases is "if it's not denied within a week, it's probably true" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now she is also suffering from fever and cough, but negative to COVID. Said to be stable anyway. Alexandra Pakhmutova discharged and "in excellent health". Of course, of course, better reserve the Kremlin for her 150th birthday, just to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Larisa Luzhina hospitalised in ICU with heart problems, but "doing well", "stable" etc. Apparently she has been "very shocked" about the death of actress Svetlana Svetlichnaya who died two weeks ago at 84 from multiple organ failure due to advanced oropharyngeal cancer and had also suffered from unrelated brain cancer and advanced dementia. I'd have been a bit less shocked. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
