Senator Mitch McConnell confirms he is hospitalized after a fall and is being treated for a mild case of pneumonia and will not return immediately to the Senate.His doctors report no heart attack, no stroke, no broken bones, no concussion, no tumor and no hemorrhage, and he has moved from hospital care to a rehabilitation center to regain strength.Emergency dispatch records that circulated show that cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed at his Washington home, a detail McConnell’s office has declined to confirm while Republican leaders say they have been in contact with him.Videos showing aides carrying him on a stretcher and public claims from figures such as
Laura Loomer and
Meghan McCain increased calls for medical transparency as McConnell continues legislative work through his staff.
