Norway's King Harald V, 89, in 'extremely serious' condition as expert warns country to prepare for the worst
King Harald V of Norway, 89, remains hospitalized in what the palace calls an "extremely serious" condition. He is being treated for an infection related to hemolytic anemia, a blood disorder. Dr. Bjørn Tore Gjertsen, a hematologist unaffiliated with the royal household, told NRK that given the king's age and history, Norway "must prepare for the worst." Crown Prince Haakon has assumed regent duties.
