“Narcos: Mexico” actor Manuel Masalva is in a medically induced coma after contracting a “very aggressive” bacterial infection while on vacation.

“My brother is fighting for his life far away from home,” one of the actor’s friends Mario Morán said in a TikTok shared on Wednesday.

“As of today, his situation remains delicate,” Morán added.

Morán also shared that a GoFundMe had been created to assist with the actor’s medical costs.

“The medical costs are enormous and in a country where everything is more difficult, any help, no matter how small, can make the difference in this very difficult moment,” he said in the clip.

“If you can contribute, we thank you with our entire hearts.”

Representatives for the actor did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
