Gupta said low sleep, low blood sugar levels, or illness could have contributed to his debate performance.
Dr. Sanjay Gupta said that the current level of information disclosed about Biden’s health is not sufficient to make a diagnosis from afar. | Phelan M. Ebenhack/APPresident Joe Biden should undergo “detailed cognitive and movement disorder testing” and share the results of those tests with the public, CNN’s chief medical correspondent says.
He added that the current level of information disclosed about Biden’s health is not sufficient to make a diagnosis from afar. But — after a “concerning” performance at the debate — Gupta and other brain doctors concurred that the president should receive a detailed examination of his judgment, memory, and other risk factors.
The call for testing from doctors in Gupta’s circle comes amid a crisis of confidence in Biden’s viability to run for president, beat Trump in November, and serve in office until he is 86, sparked by a performance last week where Biden had a raspy voice and gave several incomplete answers. Gupta’s analysis is the latest in a wave of intense commentary in the media about Biden’s age and scrutiny of the White House’s disclosures about his health.
