The presidential doctor confirmed that the President of the United States, Joe Biden, was healthy and able to carry out his duties as the number one person in Uncle Sam's country.

In a memo issued on Thursday, February 16, Doctor Kevin O'Connor revealed that Biden could fully carry out all his responsibilities without exception or assistance.

"President Biden remains a healthy and enthusiastic 80-year-old man who is able to carry out presidential duties, including as head of government, head of state and supreme commander," wrote OConnor as quoted by Anadolu-Oana news, Friday, February 17.

This health check was held at the Walter Reed National Military Health Center in Bethesda, Maryland.

According to O'Connor, this physical examination was carried out through a specialist doctor consultation with a number of Presidential Specialist Consultants from the National Military Health Center Walter Reed which included optometry, dentistry, orthopedic (leg and ankle), orthopedic (backbone), podiatri (leg health), physical therapy, neurology, cardiology, radiology, and dermatology.

The conclusion of the results of the examination has been further discussed with O'Connor's colleagues from the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at George Washington University.

This examination is Biden's second while serving as president, following a physical examination on November 19, 2021.

Biden will have his 80th birthday in November this year, which means he will be 82 if he decides to run for his second presidential term in the 2024 elections.

Biden became president oldest when he was sworn in at the age of 78, and would have surpassed the milestone had he been re-elected in the next election.
