According to Biden’s physician letter published by the White House, Kevin O’Connor said, “President Biden remains a healthy, vigorous, 80-year-old male, who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those of as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief.”

“The President remains fit for duty, and fully executes all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations,” he added.

Moreover, his letter painted a largely glowing picture of a president who benefits from healthy living habits.

“The President does not use any tobacco products, does not drink alcohol, and he continues to work out at least five days a week,” the letter said.

The US president, Biden measures six feet (1.83 meters) and weighs 178 pounds (nearly 80.7 kg).
