Clinton was in ICU for Privacy and Safety

In few cases, a physician fellow at Mt. Sinai Health, Dr. Imran Ali, said sepsis could be severe, but in some cases, it could be easily treated with IV antibiotics. He stated it could be more severe for older people, particularly people with cardiac history.

According to a joint statement on Thursday evening from Clinton’s personal primary physician, Dr. Lisa Bardack, and Chair of medicine at “UCI Medical Center,” Dr. Alpesh Amin, the former US President, was taken into the intensive care unit for continuous monitoring. They said he was in the ICU for safety and privacy, not because he needs critical care.
