Big B clarifies things

To clarify all the air surrounding his critical health condition, Amitabh took to his blog and gave a detailed lesson to all the people who have been disseminating false news about his health. In the blog post, Big B wrote about patient indisposition being confidential in the West, in the Medical profession. He also highlights how in the East, people have been so busy defending their faith, wealth, culture, and language from invaders that they have not seriously thought about the importance of patient confidentiality in the medical field.

Multiple times, medical professionals or security guards tattle to the reporters and paps and divulge all the information about a celebrity's presence in the hospital. The actor further adds that reporters tend to build stories out of information that they have received without actually knowing the truth or confirming it.

Speaking about his illness, the actor said, "There has been confession publicly by me on the promotion of the disease Hepatitis B .. its presence in my body since the infusion of blood from a donor carrying the virus .. and that 75% of my Liver has been destroyed."
