Jimmy Carter, 99, Is Still Alive Despite Death Hoax
Jimmy Carter is not dead, contrary to recent rumors.
After the former U.S. President, 99, was the target of a death hoax, his doctor set the record straight.
“I can confirm that the reports out there are not true,” Dr. Michael Raines, the Carter family’s physician, told Georgia TV station WALB in comments posted July 23. “He is doing as well as can be expected being in hospice, but he has not passed away.”
The death hoax comes more than a year after Carter entered hospice care at his Georgia home. His doctor said the retired politician “has not had any significant health issues in the last three or four weeks. Or since the last time I saw him, and I am on the way there today to reevaluate him and make my usual visit with him.”
The death rumors began after a photo of an official-looking fake letter stating Carter had “passed away” at his home on July 23 was shared on X. The creator of the post had themselves admitted the letter was fake after it went viral hours later.
