Netflix actor Manuel Masalva remains in a ‘stable but critical condition’ after being placed in a medically induced coma. The 34-year-old, best known for portraying Ramón Arellano Félix in Narcos: Mexico, contracted a ‘very aggressive bacteria’ while travelling in the Philippines.
Deadline reported the latest health update following Masalva’s emergency surgery in late March.
Doctors discovered the bacterial infection, which had by then spread to his lungs.
His manager, Jaime Jaramillo Espinosa, told the LA Times he was responding to treatment and had been given antibiotics. Masalva is currently receiving treatment at a hospital in Dubai.
