Former President Bill Clinton, 78, was hospitalized in Washington, D.C., on Monday afternoon for testing and observation after
developing a fever, according to his spokesperson. Clinton, who was taken to MedStar Georgetown University Hospital from his
residence, is described as “awake and alert” and is expected to return home for Christmas. Having faced prior health challenges,
including a quadruple bypass in 2004 and hernia surgery in 2010, Clinton remains active,
