Biden: I Will Go to the Hospital for Medical Examinations

U.S. President Joe Biden announced that he will go to "Walter Reed Military Hospital for his annual medical examination." The White House clarified that "Biden is heading to Walter Reed Military Hospital for routine medical checks." The medical evaluation will be of significant interest as the 81-year-old president seeks re-election in the presidential elections scheduled for November 5. The White House stated that it will release a written summary of the routine annual medical examination that the Democratic president will undergo later today. This year's routine check comes as Biden and former Republican President Donald Trump (77 years old) prepare for a potential rematch in the presidential elections. The two candidates have accused each other of mental decline. Nikki Haley (52), the last challenger to Trump for the Republican nomination for the presidential elections, stated that both men are too advanced in age for those holding the presidency and should undergo cognitive tests. After the examination Biden underwent last year, doctors announced that he was in good health and "fit for office." The examination included the removal of a skin lesion from his chest and confirmed his full recovery from COVID-19 symptoms after contracting the virus in 2022.
