Supreme Court Justice

 

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas Hospitalized One of the oldest Supreme Court justices has been hospitalized since March 18, the court announced on Sunday. Justice Clarence Thomas, 73, was admitted to Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington on Friday evening after experiencing flu-like symptoms, the court said in a statement. Following testing, Thomas was diagnosed with an infection. It wasn’t clear whether the infection was related to COVID-19 and a court spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Thomas and all other eight members of the court have received a COVID-19 vaccine and a booster dose. Thomas is being treated with intravenous antibiotics, according to the court. “His symptoms are abating, he is resting comfortably, and he expects to be released from the hospital in a day or two,” the court said. Thomas will participate in any cases the court is scheduled to hear in the near future, even if he cannot be present for arguments. Thomas, a George W. Bush appointee, has served on the court since 1991. He is the longest-serving member currently on the court and will be the oldest member once Justice Stephen Breyer, 83, retires after the current term.
