Reporters asked the White House about the signs, and White House spokesman Andrew Bates explained that they were due to Biden using a continuous airway pressure machine the night before to treat her sleep apnea. In addition, another White House official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, explained that Biden had begun using the equipment in recent weeks in an effort to improve the quality of his sleep. At 80 years old, Biden is the oldest president in US history.
He revealed that he suffered from sleep apnea in 2008, when he was Vice President under Barack Obama (2009-2017). However, his personal physician did not mention the case in any of the reports issued in 2021 and 2023. In 2019, while he was preparing for the 2020 presidential election, Biden’s doctor revealed in another report that he underwent multiple surgeries on his nasal passages. The most common treatment for sleep apnea patients is a continuous positive airway pressure machine, which provides a continuous flow of air to the patient, helping to keep the airway open and ensuring that the person gets the oxygen they need while they sleep.
