华盛顿讯——肯塔基州共和党联邦参议员米奇·麦康奈尔的发言人周四发表声明称，麦康奈尔仍在住院，且“病情持续好转”。此时距离他首次住院已过去两周多。
麦康奈尔于6月14日住院。本周哥伦比亚广播公司新闻审核的一份EMS调度录音显示，当天急救人员前往他的家中处理一名意识丧失人员。
在调度通话中，接线员通报了一起“心脏骤停”事件，一名医护人员称麦康奈尔的住址正在进行“心肺复苏”。接线员还提到有人“失去意识”。EMS通话中并未提及麦康奈尔的姓名，哥伦比亚广播公司新闻也未确认该意识丧失人员的身份。
麦康奈尔的团队未确认此次调度出警事件涉及该参议员，也未提供更多关于他住院原因的信息。
“麦康奈尔参议员感谢各界在他住院康复期间给予的大量支持，”发言人周四在声明中表示，“参议员的病情持续好转，目前正趁着国会休会期间，与工作人员密切处理肯塔基州及参议院相关事务。”
麦康奈尔是小儿麻痹症幸存者，近年来多次遭遇健康危机。5月19日的一场委员会听证会上，人们看到这位84岁的老人手上缠着绷带。今年2月，麦康奈尔因“流感样症状”自行就医，随后住院超过一周。
2023年，他因摔倒导致脑震荡住院，之后还曾两次出现言语停顿的情况。2024年，他在另一起摔倒事故中受了轻伤。

Washington — Sen. Mitch McConnell remains in the hospital and “continues to improve,” a spokesperson for the Kentucky Republican said in a statement Thursday, just over two weeks after he was initially hospitalized.
McConnell was hospitalized on June 14. On the same day, emergency medical personnel went to his home to respond to an unconscious person, according to a public EMS dispatch call reviewed by CBS News this week.
During the call, a dispatcher called in a “cardiac arrest” and a medic said there was “CPR in progress” at McConnell’s address. The dispatcher also said somebody was “unconscious.” The senator’s name is not mentioned during the EMS call, and CBS News has not confirmed the identity of the unconscious person.
McConnell’s team has not confirmed that the dispatch call was about the senator or provided more information about why he was admitted to the hospital.
“Senator McConnell appreciates the outpouring of support he’s receiving while he continues his recovery in the hospital,” the spokesperson said in a statement Thursday. “The Senator continues to improve, and is working closely with his staff on Kentucky and Senate matters while the Senate is out of session.”
McConnell, a childhood polio survivor, has faced several health scares in recent years. In a May 19 committee hearing, the 84-year-old was seen with a bandage around his hand. In February, McConnell spent more than a week in the hospital after he checked himself in for “flu-like symptoms.”
In 2023, he was hospitalized with a concussion after a fall and later appeared to freeze in two separate instances. He suffered minor injuries in 2024 after another fall.
