Austrian Health Minister Anschober says he is stepping down, exhausted

Austrian Health Minister Rudolf Anschober of the Greens, the junior partner in the country's conservative-led coalition, said on Tuesday he is stepping down as he is overworked because of the COVID-19 pandemic and his health has suffered.

"I ... do not want to break myself," Anschober, 60, said in a short-notice statement to the media, adding that he has recently been suffering from blood-pressure problems and exhaustion.
