Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was admitted to a hospital for treatment of a possible infection, a court spokeswoman said, adding the Justice will stay in the hospital for a few days to receive intravenous antibiotic treatment

“The Justice is resting comfortably and will stay in the hospital for a few days to receive intravenous antibiotic treatment,” spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said in a statement.

Ginsburg, the court’s oldest justice, has had a series of health scares in recent years. In May she underwent nonsurgical treatment for a gallstone that had caused an infection. In August of last year, she underwent radiation therapy for pancreatic cancer. In November 2018, she broke three ribs in a fall. Subsequent medical tests led to treatment for lung cancer that caused her to miss oral arguments in January 2019. She had previously been treated for pancreatic cancer in 2009 and colon cancer in 1999.

The Supreme Court ended its nine-month term on July 9, after hearing a number of oral arguments by teleconference for the first time in its history in response to health concerns raised by the coronavirus pandemic.

USA needs a mandatory retirement age

Retire please. This is elder abuse.

Time for this strong courageous woman to retire n enjoy what life she has left. She has served well.

How well is does your cognitive ability needs to be, in order to do your job well as a supreme judge?

Prayers for RBG and all of us

If you wanna wonder the true nature of humans,just think how liberals&conservatives take this news. One says'Please just wait until Jan 1st&then I,dont care'&the other says'Good for Trump one more SC Judge appointee'.Her families says 'Get well soon grandma'.Good luck to you all.

God help her!

Hope she’s ok

If ever anyone held on for dear life!

Just a few days and Trump will be able to nominate a new Justice.

Hang on for another 4 months. 😓😬

'Fragile like a bomb not a flower.' RBG get well soon!

RiP

The likelihood of a Covid-19 infection to a USA Supreme Court Judge raises more questions as to what containment measures are judicial bodies applying to protect court officials that are returning or have returned to work?

It’s time to retire

Praying for Justice Ginsburg tonight.

Get well soon RBG

If Mitch McConnell crams through a far right nominee before Trump's expected exit after holding back Obama's Merrick Garland pick the Democrats have no choice but to add extra Justices to the Supreme Court to even things out, all it takes is a simple majority Congressional vote

She better live Dammit! Please don't leave us Ruth!

Hope she heals up fast and bounces back. God speed.

C'mon RGB. We need you for decades more but just another 6 months minimum

No.

Goodness; hopefully we will get a new real constitutionalist on the court and her time on the court is over soon! We can only hope!

If you pray, do it for Ruth please.

Prayers up for our fighter!

I want to be on the Supreme Court. I would be fair. This lady needs to bow out. Head to NY. At your own risk.

Thoughts & prayers

Should retire, she has earned that right. A nice conservative judge can take over.

I don’t agree with her politics, but I wish her a speedy recovery!

Be gone already

🙏Get better RBG; ww need you!

Speedy recovery Justice Ginsberg!

🙏🏽 get well

Anyone starting a board ?

😢

They desperately trying to keep Justice Ginsburg alive until the Maoist Communist's over throw the Republic.

Bless her, hope she feels better soon.

She should’ve retired years ago. She is probably the worst supreme court justice in history. She is a bigoted left-wing radical and has caused harm to our country.

Be strong Ruth! Only 4 months left!

She’s got Covid.

Protect RBG at all costs!

PRAYING FOR RBG ❤️❤️❤️

ANTIBIOTICS IS CODE FOR ADRENCHROME Q

DON'T DIE ON US D: Please don't die on us!!!!! We can't give trump more spots.

Please take care, RBG. You are needed by every democrat in America. Bless you are hurry back..
