The F1 Champ suffered a fatal head injury in an accident that took place while skiing in the French Alps in 2013. There has been no appearance of Schumacher ever since as his family is maintaining strict privacy. Earlier reports suggested that he is bedridden and various treatment are being done. The hospital, however, refused to comment on it stating privacy issues.
Secrecy maintained over the treatment
Along with the Paris hospital Georges-Pompidou, the manager of Schumacher also denied commenting on the treatment. The report even claimed that according to its sources, Schumacher was twice in the same hospital earlier with a different name with a team of doctors. It even said that there are over ten guards with few equipped with earphones to keep a check on the patient. The family is strict about the privacy of their patient. His home at Geneva is surrounded by forest and huge walls to protect him from unnecessary limelight.
