HaGaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita will be remaining in Mayanei HaYeshua Hospital in Bnei Brak on Monday night. The latest update was received on Monday afternoon Israel time.

Professor Moti Ravid reports a slight improvement in the gadol hador is improving but nevertheless they prefer that he remains under observation for an additional night. Rav Chaim was admitted after he was not feeling well on Shabbos and has since been diagnosed with a respiratory infection. He remains in an intensive care unit, not because of the severity of his condition, but for the ease monitoring his overall condition during hospitalization.

As such, doctors on Tuesday morning 2 Shevat will determine if Rav Chaim will be released from the hospital.

The tzibur is asked to continue being mispallel for Shmaryahu Yosef Chaim ben Pesha Miriam bsoch sha’ar cholei yisrael.
