Former President Bill Clinton hospitalized with non-Covid infection
NBC News ^ | By Dartunorro Clark and Monica Alba

Former President Bill Clinton was hospitalized in Southern California on Tuesday evening, a spokesperson said Thursday.

Angel Urena, the spokesperson, said the illness is a non-Covid related infection.

"On Tuesday evening, President Clinton was admitted to UCI Medical Center to receive treatment," he 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."

Clinton's doctors also released a statement.

"He was admitted to the hospital for close monitoring and administered IV antibiotics and fluids. He remains at the hospital for continuous monitoring. After two days of treatment, his white blood cell count is trending down and he is responding to antibiotics well," Drs. Alpesh Amin and Lisa Bardack said in the statement. "The California-based medical team has been in constant communication with the President's New York-based medical team, including his cardiologist. We hope to have him go home soon."

A source close to Clinton said Thursday that he is in intensive care "as a precautionary measure." The hospital needed to isolate him and not because his care required it, the source said. The original infection was diagnosed as urologic, but then it morphed into a broader one, the source said. In 2004, Clinton underwent a quadruple bypass operation at New York-Presbyterian Hospital to reroute his blood supply to circumvent four severely clogged arteries, The New York Times reported at the time. Clinton had complained of chest pains and shortness of breath. A team of surgeons then found extensive signs of heart disease, with blockages in some of Clinton's arteries at well over 90 percent, the newspaper reported.

Clinton returned to New York-Presbyterian Hospital in 2010 to undergo another heart procedure, this time to insert two stents into a coronary artery.

Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton were scheduled to attend a private Clinton Foundation event in California Thursday evening.

Hillary Clinton went to the event to represent them both, according to a person close to Clintons, and then she went to be with her husband in Irvine, which is in Orange County.

Bill Clinton’s in an ICU unit, Hillary is collapsing at a 9-11 Memorial ...

Funny, we don’t see Donald Trump in a hospital for heart disease ... and he eats a lot of “fast food” ... he’s still vigorous & active

but then, he didn’t make deals with the Devil, either!!

“The original infection was diagnosed as urological”

Did you notice the spokesperson’s name? Angel Urena.

According to my nurse friend, a lot of old people die of UTIs that turn septic.

Beyond that, I have no comment...

There are many possibilities: syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomoniasis, HIV, crabs ... There is a long list of infections that Bill has undoubtedly been exposed to, bacterial, viral and parasitic.

Most likely, Bill has a combination of more than one.

Surely you jest. It’s only We The Little People who are having shortages. Our elite overlords have plenty.

Urinary tract infection

Bookie says it sounds more like a case of clap.

DailyMail says, “sepsis caused by urinary tract infection.”

Syphillis?

My first thought as well, now it comes out that it is "urologic." Hmm...
