Biden faces questions about his vitality as he and other septuagenarians Warren, Sanders and Bloomberg seek the 2020 Democratic nomination.
Joe Biden's doctor says the 77-year-old presidential candidate is "healthy" and "vigorous" and fit to serve as president.
The campaigns of Elizabeth Warren, 70, and Michael Bloomberg, 77, have also put out medical summaries. "Vice President Biden is a healthy, vigorous, 77-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency," wrote Dr. Kevin O'Connor, the director of executive medicine at the George Washington University Medical Faculty Associates.
He currently treats Biden for four issues: non-valvular atrial fibrillation , hyperlipidemia , gastroesophageal reflux and seasonal allergies. The former vice president takes three prescription and two over-the-counter medicines for the ailments. O'Connor added that Biden does not drink alcohol or use tobacco, while he exercises at least five days a week.
