Former Presidents’ Health Reports: A Closer Look
Former President Donald Trump recently made headlines with the release of a brief health report from his doctor, Dr. Bruce Aronwald. While the report claims that his health is “excellent” and mentions weight loss due to an “improved diet” and daily exercise, it lacks crucial specifics that many would expect.
One notable absence from the report is Trump’s weight. In addition, there is no mention of his blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prescriptions, or the actual amount of weight lost. Without these details, it is difficult to ascertain a complete picture of his overall health.
Polls have indicated that voters are concerned about the fitness of these former presidents for the presidency. Trump, in particular, has pointed to his performance on cognitive tests as proof of his mental sharpness. However, these tests merely provide a glimpse into one aspect of cognitive function and do not paint a complete picture of a person’s overall mental health.
In conclusion, former President Trump’s recently released health report sparks concerns due to its lack of crucial specifics. The same can be said for past reports. President Biden, on the other hand, has been more forthcoming with detailed health reports. However, concerns about the age and fitness of both former presidents persist. As a society, it is essential that we prioritize the transparency and accuracy of these health reports to ensure that our leaders are in the best possible condition to serve the nation.
