Who Decided to Conceal Truth about Sharon's Health?

Most of the questions raised about the quality of treatment given to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon are essentially medical, but beyond that, there are other questions of public concern. Who, for example, decided to conceal from the public the truth about the blood vessel disease diagnosed after Sharon's first stroke? And did doctors issue the partial medical report in good faith, or in consultation with Sharon and his advisers?....Sharon's doctors, including the director of Hadassah Hospital, gave the misleading impression that they were giving the public a full and detailed report, sometimes too detailed, while in fact they were concealing the cerebral amyloid angiopathy....The existence of such deposits characterizes Alzheimer's disease. This information is relevant to the question, whether the prime minister is capable of dealing with another term in office.....On December 26, eight days after Sharon's first hospitalization, his doctors held a news conference at which they appeared to provide the entire medical findings. Professor Bolek Goldman said at the time that "with the prime minister's consent, we are at your disposal to provide full disclosure of the prime minister's condition following his hospitalization."
