Why is Iroha Kazama going on a hiatus?

The vtuber Iroha Kazama stated that she is taking a streaming hiatus because of her severe throat issues.

In her X post, Iroha Kazama explained to her fans that she needs to take a break from streaming because she will have to go to the hospital for vocal exercises to cure her throat. The vtuber elaborated that doctors have given her hope that she will be completely fine soon.
