Previous health issues
In 2020, Mikhaila Peterson, the daughter of Dr. Paterson, told The Sun in an interview that her dad caught coronavirus in a Serbian hospital whilst recovering for an over-reliance on the anti-anxiety drug Benzodiazepine.
She stated: "He was put on a whole bunch of, kind of preemptively, he was put on anti-virals and things. I don't know if that was necessary, because his symptoms weren't that bad — he didn't have a cough, he had a mild fever, but they just put him on everything.
Mikhaila also said her father is suffering from pneumonia, the second time this year he has fought the illness.
"And so now we've had a step back in his recovery. Life is just not good, things are not good right now. He'll get better, but he's definitely taken a step back and it's just really unfortunate… it's been a disaster," she stated.
