Fortunately, it doesn’t seem serious:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was hospitalized Thursday after becoming ill in her office at the Supreme Court.
A statement from the court said that Justice Ginsburg, 76, was taken to Washington Hospital Center as a precaution.
The statement said that she had received treatment earlier in the day for an iron deficiency that was discovered in July.
About an hour after the treatment Thursday, Justice Ginsburg “developed lightheadedness and fatigue,” the statement said. She was found to have a slightly low blood pressure, which the court said can occur after the type of treatment she received.
Although an examination found her to be in stable condition, she was taken to the hospital as a precaution, the court said.
You may recall that back in February, Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning predicted that Justice Ginsburg would be dead within nine months. With two months left to go on that prediction, Ginsburg seems to be doing fine.
