PUERTO VALLARTA (PVDN) – Steve Wozniak, the renowned scientist and co-founder of tech giant Apple, was admitted to a hospital in Mexico City after suffering an ischemic vascular accident, commonly known as a stroke, according to media outlet El Pais. The incident occurred on Wednesday, disrupting his anticipated appearance at the World Business Forum.
At 73 years of age, Wozniak was expected to address a large audience at the conference but faced an urgent health setback when blood clots obstructed the blood vessels to his brain, necessitating immediate medical attention. He was accompanied by his wife at the time he experienced distressing symptoms, which led to his swift transfer to the ABC Santa Fe hospital for an emergency magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure.
Sources close to the medical team have confirmed Wozniak’s condition is stable. Following the incident, members of his staff arranged for a private jet to expedite his return to the United States for further medical treatment.
Wozniak’s influence on the technology sector is monumental. He is credited with pioneering the development of the first personal computer, revolutionizing the way technology is utilized in the modern world. His partnership with the late Steve Jobs in 1976 marked the inception of what would become the world’s leading technology company. His innovative vision and contributions to computing have been recognized and celebrated worldwide, including in a past interview with EL PAÍS in 2015.
The tech community and admirers globally are closely monitoring updates on Wozniak’s health and wishing for his swift and complete recovery. Further details on his condition will be reported as they become available.
