"McConnell's hospitalization was the latest in a string of public health scares dating back to at least March 2023, when McConnell tripped at a dinner event in Washington, D.C., and was admitted and then discharged from the hospital several days later. In 2023, he twice froze for prolonged periods in front of cameras. A polio survivor, McConnell also fell in public once in 2024 and twice last year."
""Senator McConnell was discharged from the hospital yesterday and is grateful for the outstanding care he received. He is feeling better and will be working from home this week on the advice of his doctors.""
"At the time of his hospitalization, a spokesperson said McConnell checked himself into the hospital after experiencing "flu-like symptoms.""
Sen. Mitch McConnell was discharged Tuesday after an eight-day hospitalization for flu-like symptoms and will work from home this week on doctors' advice. He is reported to be feeling better and was described as grateful for the outstanding care he received. McConnell checked himself into the hospital after experiencing flu-like symptoms, and the exact nature of the health issue has not been disclosed. The hospitalization follows a series of prior public health incidents, including a March 2023 trip and brief hospital stay after a fall, two episodes of freezing on camera in 2023, and public falls in 2024 and last year.
