Biden to require walking boot after fracturing his foot

“It is anticipated that he will likely require a walking boot for several weeks,” O’Connor was quoted as saying.

On Sunday night, President Donald Trump wished Biden well, tweeting “Get well soon!“

Reporters covering the president-elect were not able to see Biden enter the doctor’s office. But Biden was visibly limping when he left the doctor’s office to head to an imaging center for his CT scan, according to pool reports.

Biden was injured while playing with Major, one of the Bidens’ two dogs.

At 78, Biden will be the oldest president when he’s inaugurated in January, but he frequently dismissed questions about his age on the campaign trail. His doctor has described him as “healthy, vigorous” and “fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.”
