He fell ill during a dive and was hospitalized in Cagliari.

It happened in Santa Maria Navarrese where a 118 ambulance intervened to rescue a 55-year-old diver, the victim of a probable decompression syndrome. This is a tourist from Lombardy who was diving. The illness, perhaps, in the recovery phase. The diver was transported to the Nostra Signora della Mercede hospital in Lanusei. The Areus helicopter was then alerted. Echo Lima 3 took off from the Elmas base and landed at Tortolì airport where the patient was transferred by ambulance. Obligatory transport because in the flight to the hyperbaric chamber it is essential to fly at low altitude: in case of transport by helicopter, it must not exceed 300 metres.

However, the man's condition is reassuring.
