Former President Bill Clinton was taken to MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington on Monday after he experienced a fever.
The 78-year-old arrived at the hospital in the afternoon for further tests and close observation, as shared by Angel Urena, who serves as Clinton’s deputy chief of staff.
Urena also mentioned that the former president is in good spirits and is grateful for the exceptional medical attention he is receiving.

Bill Clinton, who held the presidency for two terms from January 1993 until January 2001, recently made an appearance at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago over the summer, and he actively campaigned for Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in her recent bid for the presidency ahead of the November elections.

Throughout the years after exiting the White House, Clinton has encountered several health challenges.
In 2004, he underwent a quadruple bypass surgery following episodes of severe chest pain and breathlessness.
The following year, he had to return to the hospital to address a partially collapsed lung, and in 2010, he had stents put in to clear a blockage in a coronary artery.

To improve his health, Clinton adopted a largely vegan diet that led to weight loss and reported positive health changes.
In 2021, he was hospitalized for six days in California for treatment of an infection, which was not related to COVID-19, as the pandemic was still impacting the nation.
At that time, an aide revealed that he was dealing with a urological infection that had entered his bloodstream, although he was on the path to recovery and did not experience septic shock, a serious and dangerous condition.
The aide noted that Clinton was in a specialized section of the hospital during this earlier hospitalization but was not in intensive care.
