Biden is not being treated for Parkinson's, White House says

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden is not being treated for Parkinson's disease, the White House said on Monday, after reports surfaced that a doctor specializing in the malady had visited the White House eight times over the past year.

Concerns that the president might be suffering from an undisclosed illness have risen since Biden's stumbled in his June 27 debate with Republican Donald Trump.

The New York Times said White House visitor logs show that Dr. Kevin Cannard, a neurologist who specializes in movement disorders and recently published a paper on Parkinson’s, visited the White House eight times from last summer through the spring of this year.

During an acrimonious briefing, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to confirm Cannard's visit, saying she wanted to respect the privacy of all involved for security reasons.

She said Biden had seen a neurologist three times connected to Biden's annual physical exams.

She said Biden was not being treated for Parkinson's.

It is Parkinson's Disease specialists that treat Lewy Body Dementia.

Everyone is asking the wrong question!

==

Not treated for Parkinson’s - then what for?

Or not treated at all - letting him crash.

The combined IQ of the WH press corp w/o doocey is about 10.

They can’t muster a decent question for KJP if their life depended on it.

"U.S. President Joe Biden is not being treated for Parkinson's disease, the White House said on Monday"

Ok. Then what is Biden being treated for? Late stage syphilis?

"She said Biden was not being treated for Parkinson's."

Clever use of the present tense. She did not say he hadn't been treated for Parkinson's in the past, or that he wouldn't be treated in the future, just that he wasn't being treated at the time the denial was issued.

I can affirm to everybody on FR, as God is my witness, I'm not using the bathroom!!

Doesn't mean I didn't use it this morning and that I won't later tonight, but as I type this, I'm NOT using the bathroom.

Yup—Democrats love word games—”It depends what the meaning of the word is is”.

Biden is grotesquely incompetent—non compos mentis—regardless of whatever “disease” or “diseases” he has.

You can’t debate with liars like this—it is like wrestling with a pig—just makes a big mess.

How cruel! Shame on Jill for allowing him to spiral without even getting him any treatment.

Or, ‘not being treated’ could be the problem.
