THE KING’S ILLNESS
TEAM WORK’AMONG DOCTORS.
STATEMENT BY LORD DAWSON
Rugby, July 21
Lord Dawson of Penn, the King’s physician, speaking at a prize-giving at the Giggleswick School yesterday, referred to the King’s illness, and said the medical service rendered to his Majesty was an example of carefully selected team work in tackling the problem facing his medical advisers. His Majesty in effect received as good treatment as he would have had as a patient in a hospital. Three doctors were accustomed to work in teams and the people outside left them to do their job. He added: “The same was true in the case of the King with the result you know, and I think there is more hope every day that his Majesty’s recovery will be complete.” It is stated at Buckingham Palace that the King had had a good night and that his progress is still satisfactory. The doctors paid him their usual morning visit.— British Official Wireless.
