    It doesn’t sound like there’s necessarily been any recent change in his condition—their ultimate source is a month-old Reddit post from his former assistant, who was relaying information she’d heard from his family a month prior to that.

    Edit: This AP story has more info: he hasn’t been able to speak since a stroke last year, but he was able to travel to Brazil with his wife via hospital jet and is still following the news from Gaza.

      A few months is still recent for people not following his health closely.

        True, but even the info from the family member was just confirming that his condition hadn’t improved since the “medical event” he suffered a full year ago.
