Feinstein hospitalized with case of shingles - Roll Call

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the 89-year-old California Democrat who announced last month she would retire rather than run again next year, has been hospitalized for treatment of shingles.

“I was diagnosed over the February recess with a case of shingles,” Feinstein said in a statement. “I have been hospitalized and am receiving treatment in San Francisco and expect to make a full recovery. I hope to return to the Senate later this month.”

Feinstein is the second Democrat in the chamber that the party controls — by a 51-49 margin — to be hospitalized. Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman is being treated for depression.
