The world has become increasingly fascinated by President Joe Biden’s age and health, with some even turning to doctors for snapshot appraisals of the 81-year-old president's ‘freezing’ episodes.
Knewz.com has learned of one such opinion stemming from the inventor of the gold-standard cognitive test, Dr. Ziad Nasreddine.
Speaking to theDaily Mail, Dr. Nasreddine noted that slurred speech is a symptom of Parkinson's disease and is brought on by disrupted secretions of brain hormones responsible for movement.
The latter was broached in the context of Biden’s numerous erroneous speech and movement episodes—and sometimes the complete lack thereof.
The last such occurrence took place while on stage at a fundraiser in Los Angeles. After he completed his speech he stopped moving and seemed to stare in a manner that some describe as “blankly” over the crowd.
According to the Associated Press, the “pause” turned the “star-studded” event into a target for opponents.
This incident was preceded by another moment during the White House Juneteenth celebration. The video of Biden – which even made it onto TikTok – shows the president standing absolutely still, with a half smile on his face while his vice president, Kamala Harris, swayed and clapped to the gospel tunes of Kirk Franklin.
Los Angeles pro-Donald Trump supporter, Dr. Sheila Nazarian, was one of the medical professionals to weigh in on the sighting also hinting at Parkinson’s disease.
In a post to X, the plastic surgeon wrote:
“Frozen (masked faces, diminished arm swing, less frequent blinking, etc) likely due to a central neurological disorder like Parkinson's.”

Yep, it’s particularly odd that he’d ignore a chance to relive his days “growing up in the black church”.....
I think he’s just pooping. It’s hard to walk and poop at the same time. If old poopy pants gets through the debate without pooping, he wins.
My dad passed away from complications due to Parkinson’s. The one thing that I notice about Creepy Joe that differs from my dad’s condition is the absence of the hand trembling, Joe’s hands are more like a statues with no movement, also Biden’s verbal gaffes seem more like dementia.

Biden walks like someone with early Parkinsons.
lol......that is odd.
BUMP!!!!!!!!!!
Clickbait. Aphasia also would explain it.
my 90 yrs aunt walks just like joey, but has all her marbles.
she does not have parkinsons. joey does not have the tail tell tremour of one of his hands or arms either.
My dad never had the tremors common to Parkinson’s, but he had enough of the other symptoms to be diagnosed with it.
In retrospect I think that he had MSA, multiple system atrophy, a rare neurological disorder which shares many of the same symptoms, but which is ultimately fatal. MSA just progressively shuts down portions of your autonomic nervous system until your body ceases to function. There is no cure.
