At the time on Wednesday, Wozniak was originally scheduled to speak in Mexico City, said a CNN source involved with organizing the World Business Forum event.
During the hospital visit in Mexico City, an MRI showed that Wozniak had suffered from a “minor but real stroke.” Wozniak also shared that he has since been released from the hospital and is now on way back home.
Wozniak’s update confirms numerous stories that outlets had reported as the news of his hospitalization first broke.
According to a TMZ article, a source had informed the website that the 73-year-old Apple co-founder told his wife that he was “feeling strange” and then began showing concerning symptoms which prompted the trip to the hospital.
TMZ reported that Wozniak could have been experiencing vertigo, but tests were still being performed. Shortly after, Spanish-language outlets began reporting that Wozniak suffered a stroke. However, there had yet to be a confirmation from Wozniak or his representatives until the ABC News report on Thursday.
UPDATE: Nov. 9, 2023, 3:13 p.m. EST Mashable has since updated this story with information regarding why Wozniak was hospitalized and his current condition, which had just recently been confirmed by ABC News.
