“President Clinton was discharged earlier today after being treated for the flu. He and his family are deeply grateful for the exceptional care provided by the team at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital and are touched by the kind messages and well wishes he received,” Ureña wrote, adding that the former president “sends his warmest wishes for a happy and healthy holiday season to all.”
On Monday, Ureña spoke to CNN saying, “The president is fine.” The news outlet reported that Clinton, 78, was at home in Washington D.C. when he developed a fever. He was taken to Medstar Georgetown and underwent testing and observation. A Clinton aide also told CNN that the former president was “awake and alert.” Another Clinton associate reasserted the president’s stay was not of concern and “not urgent or dire by any means,” according to the outlet.

In 2021, Bill Clinton was hospitalized for a urological infection that had spread to his bloodstream, requiring a six-day stay. Over the years, the 42nd president has faced several health challenges, particularly related to heart issues. In 2004, he underwent quadruple bypass surgery, followed by the implantation of stents in a coronary artery in 2010.
Despite these health setbacks, Clinton has remained remarkably active. This year, he campaigned alongside Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris during her presidential bid. In November, he released his memoir, Citizen: My Life After the White House, and has since been promoting it through interviews and public appearances.
