On the 17th local time, Clinton was discharged from the hospital accompanied by his wife Hillary.
According to reports, on the 17th, Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton walked out of the hospital arm in arm, and then greeted the hospital staff.
When asked how he felt, Clinton gave the camera a thumbs up.
Armin, the executive director of the University of California, Irvine Department of Medicine, has been supervising Clinton's medical team, and he issued a statement after Clinton was discharged from the hospital.
"(Former President) Clinton was discharged from the University of California, Irvine Medical Center on the 17th. His body temperature and white blood cell count returned to normal. He will return to his home in New York to complete his course of antibiotics." Amin wrote, "I represent California. The owner of the University Irvine Medical Center said that it is an honor to treat him and will continue to monitor his progress."
Clinton was admitted to the ICU of the Intensive Care Unit at the University of California Irvine Medical Center due to a urinary tract infection that spread to the blood last week.
According to his doctor, Clinton was in good spirits throughout the treatment.
He was admitted to the ICU for privacy and safety, not because he needed intensive care.
According to the Clinton office, the 75-year-old Clinton felt tired on the 12th and was taken to the hospital after being tested.
According to Clinton spokesperson Angel Urena, as of the 16th, Clinton "continued to make outstanding progress" and received further intravenous antibiotics overnight in the hospital.
According to a source familiar with the situation, the antibiotics needed to treat Clinton’s type of infection must be administered intravenously, not orally, which is why he stayed in the hospital.
One of Clinton's aides stated that he had never had a potentially life-threatening septic shock.
Clinton’s doctors said that urinary system infections are common among older people and are easy to treat, although they can spread quickly into the bloodstream.
Clinton has faced other health challenges in the past.
He underwent four heart bypass operations in 2004 and implanted two stents to open an artery in 2010.
Bill Clinton served as President of the United States from 1993 to 2001 and was the 42nd President of the United States.
