Biden's age issue has been a target for President Trump, 74, to attack during his campaign.

The former US vice president was about 1m8 tall, weighed over 80 kg and had a blood pressure of 128/84 at the time of the release of the health assessment.

During his campaign, to fight health attacks, Biden regularly jogged up the podium.

Ross Baker, a political scientist at Rutgers University who has advised lawmakers of both parties, said Biden must build a reputation with the American people that he is physically and mentally fit.

Before Biden, former President Ronald Reagan was re-elected at the age of 73. President Donald Trump also took office at the age of 70.

After being predicted by the media to become President-elect with 306 electoral votes, Biden quickly planned to build a new cabinet to fulfill the top priorities of Covid-19 and economic affairs.
