President Biden in Good Health After Cold: White House Confirms Medical Exam Followed Debate

President Joe Biden recently had a medical checkup after his debate last week and informed Democratic governors during a private meeting at the White House that he is in good health. According to sources familiar with the conversation, the checkup was prompted by a cold he had and was described as a “brief” exam with no major tests involved.

This information was initially disclosed by Politico and later addressed by White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. She stated that President Biden had not undergone any medical exams following his last physical in February, adding that he had not undergone any kind of medical exams at all prior to the conversation. ABC News has contacted the White House for further comments on the matter, but no response has been provided at the time of reporting.
