Biden Health Update: White House Physician Conducts Medical Check-up Amid Election Concerns

As concerns about Joe Biden’s health and re-election campaign intensified following a disastrous first presidential debate against Donald Trump, the POTUS made a significant announcement during a meeting with over 20 Democratic governors on Wednesday. During a private meeting, Biden revealed that he had undergone a medical check-up after the previous week’s debate, assuring the governors that he was still in good health.

Sources familiar with the discussion revealed that the check-up was conducted by a White House physician due to lingering symptoms from a cold and did not involve any major tests. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre avoided direct questions from reporters about whether Biden had been examined since the debate, stating that the president undergoes regular annual physicals that are released in a thorough report.

Despite some Democrats suggesting that Biden should drop out of the race, several governors expressed their support for his re-election bid during the meeting. Maryland Governor Wes Moore stated that Biden had their backs and would have his back as well. New York Governor Kathy Hochul also expressed confidence after the meeting, while Minnesota Governor Tim Walz highlighted the concern about the threat of a Trump presidency and emphasized their support for Biden as the party leader and nominee.
