Former U.S. President Bill Clinton has been admitted to MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington following a fever, according to his spokesperson. 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. Biden's final overseas tour to include Pope Francis and PM Meloni 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. Extreme heat at Colorado airshow sickens about 100 people with 10 hospitalized, officials say In 2021, he was hospitalized in California for six days due to a urological infection that had spread to his bloodstream. Though serious, he avoided septic shock and was placed in a hospital section with intensive care capabilities, but did not require ICU treatment. Clinton's spokesperson has assured the public that he is recovering well and remains in positive spirits.

Former President Bill Clinton was admitted to a Southern California hospital Tuesday with an infection but he is “on the mend,” his spokesman said Thursday. Clinton, 75, was admitted to the University of California Irvine Medical Center on Tuesday evening for a non-COVID-related infection, Angel Ureña said in a statement. “He is on the mend, in good spirits and is incredibly thankful to the doctors, nurses, and staff providing him with excellent care,” Ureña said.

We hope to have him go home soon.” In the years since Clinton left the White House in 2001, the former president has faced health scares. In 2004, he underwent quadruple bypass surgery after experiencing prolonged chest pains and shortness of breath. He returned to the hospital for surgery for a partially collapsed lung in 2005, and in 2010 had a pair of stents implanted in a coronary artery. He responded by embracing a largely vegan diet that saw him lose weight and report improved health.

And in 2016, as Hillary Clinton sought the White House as the Democratic nominee, Bill Clinton — by then a grandfather and nearing 70 — returned to the campaign trail. A spokesman for the Clinton Foundation said the former president was in the Los Angeles area for private events related to his charitable organization. The UCI Medical Center is in Orange County, about 40 miles (64 km) southeast of Los Angeles.
