Former Premier League manager Ivan Juric, 49, rushed to hospital after ‘serious inflammation of upper airways'
FORMER Premier League manager Ivan Juric has been hospitalised after suffering "serious inflammation" of his upper airways. The 49-year-old is currently in charge of Serie A big boys Atalanta having replaced Gian Piero Gasperini as manager last month. 1 But he wasn't present for the club's first pre-season training session after a bacterial infection caused part of his airways to become seriously inflamed. An Atalanta statement read: ""talanta BC announces that coach Ivan Jurić was hospitalized in recent days at the Bolognini Hospital in Seriate, in the ENT department headed by Dr. Davide Panciera, following a serious inflammation of the upper airways, complicated by a bacterial infection of the epiglottis, which was treated with intravenous antibiotics." The condition of Croatian Juric is, thankfully, improving. Atalanta's statement continued: "The current clinical picture is significantly improving, and a protected discharge is expected in the next few days." Juric has yet to issue a statement on his hospitalisation. The Croat inked a two-year deal with Atalanta in early June. His appointment as La Dea chief came just over three months after he was sacked by Southampton following their relegation to the Championship. Juric was in charge of Saints for just 107 days and admits he won't, from a sporting perspective, look back on his time at St Mary's with any fondness. Following confirmation of his return to Serie A management, he said: "[It was) a negative year on a sporting level. "[From a] human and knowledge level, it was fantastic. "I think I feel much stronger than a year ago, because [at] Roma I saw great clubs, great players. I learned a lot. "In Southampton, I appreciated a fabulous Premier League. "People who are in the club, who know how to work. "I saw really beautiful things. In the Premier League, I also remember the level of the players, [it's] very high. "I think two negative experiences on the one hand, and on the other, [it was] very positive for me and my growth." THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..

Alberta reports 1,314 confirmed measles cases since March, surpassing U.S. number
Article content She noted that it's expected for every 1,000 cases, one to three people will die. Article content 'Quite a large number — maybe even as many as one in five — will get a bacterial infection after measles,' she said. Article content 'That's not nothing, that's a big deal.' Article content Opposition NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi said the United Conservative government should step up public health awareness efforts before Alberta starts seeing its own severe outcomes. Article content 'In a time where we have a massive public health outbreak, we are seeing absolute silence from this government,' Nenshi said. Article content 'This is absolute dereliction of duty and it has very real consequences on children who are getting very, very ill.' Article content Preventative Health Services Minister Adriana LaGrange's office did not immediately respond to questions Monday. Article content Saxinger also said she thought recent actions taken by U.S. President Donald Trump could be undermining the trustworthiness of U.S. data. Article content In March, the Trump administration moved to cut more than US$11 billion in public health funding across dozens of states, though in May a federal judge granted an injunction to block the cuts after 23 states filed a lawsuit. Article content Article content 'I'm not sure … the data infrastructure is as reliable as it used to be,' Saxinger said about the United States. Article content 'When you introduce a lot of chaos and disruption into a system that really relies on an organizational structure to make things happen properly, there's going to be problems.' Article content The two professors said it's unlikely Alberta or other provinces dealing with measles outbreaks will be able to get transmission under control before the fall, which is when Canada could lose its long-held measles eradication status. Article content Jenne said losing the status might not mean much for many Albertans when it comes to day-to-day life, though it could mean other countries might implement travel recommendations and vaccine requirements for those visiting Canada. Article content 'Those things can impact things as far-ranging as tourism to amateur sport visits to even business meetings if Canada is seen as an infection risk to other countries' populations,' he said. Article content 'This is something we really need to avoid, but it is not looking very likely that we will be able to avoid it, at least in the short term.' Article content
