Justice Ginsburg was admitted to the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, where she is “resting comfortably” after being treated for a possible infection. According to a court spokesperson, Ginsburg will remain for “a few days to receive intravenous antibiotic treatment.”
She was taken to the hospital earlier today with chills and fever.
The court issued a statement.
“Justice Ginsburg was admitted to The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland early this morning for treatment of a possible infection,” spokeswoman Kathleen Arberg said Tuesday.
“She was initially evaluated at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C. last night after experiencing fever and chills. She underwent an endoscopic procedure at Johns Hopkins this afternoon to clean out a bile duct stent that was placed last August. The Justice is resting comfortably and will stay in the hospital for a few days to receive intravenous antibiotic treatment.”
