Tue Dec 24 01:18:19 UTC 2024: ## Former President Bill Clinton Hospitalized with Fever
**Washington, D.C. –** Former U.S. President Bill Clinton was admitted to MedStar Georgetown University Hospital on Monday, December 23, 2024, after developing a fever. According to a statement from his deputy chief of staff, Angel Urena, the 78-year-old is undergoing testing and observation and is reported to be in good spirits.
This is not Clinton’s first health scare. He has a history of heart issues, undergoing quadruple bypass surgery in 2004, surgery for a partially collapsed lung in 2005, and stent implantation in 2010. Following these events, Clinton adopted a largely vegan diet, resulting in weight loss and improved health. In 2021, he was hospitalized for six days in California due to a urological infection that spread to his bloodstream.
While details regarding his current condition remain limited, the former President’s hospitalization has prompted concern. Clinton, who served two terms as President (1993-2001), recently participated in political events, including addressing the Democratic National Convention earlier this year and campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential bid.
