Former U.S. President Bill Clinton has been admitted to MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington following a fever, according to his spokesperson, reports UNB.
The 78-year-old was hospitalized Monday afternoon for observation and tests, as stated by his deputy chief of staff, Angel Urena. Clinton is reportedly in good spirits and appreciates the care he is receiving.
Clinton, a Democrat who served as president from January 1993 to January 2001, recently addressed the Democratic National Convention in Chicago and supported Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in her unsuccessful presidential campaign earlier this year.
Over the years, Clinton has faced several health challenges. He underwent quadruple bypass surgery in 2004 after experiencing chest pain and shortness of breath. The following year, he required surgery for a partially collapsed lung, and in 2010, he had two stents implanted in a coronary artery.
To improve his health, Clinton adopted a primarily vegan diet, which helped him lose weight and boost his overall well-being.
