For the third day in a row, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has missed oral arguments after being hospitalized for treatment of what a court spokesperson described as an infection, according to CNN.

Thomas entered Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, D.C., on Friday after experiencing flu-like symptoms. He has been absent from the bench all week.

The court announced Thomas' hospitalization on Sunday and has refused any requests to offer any update on the Justice’s health. Patricia McCabe, the court's public information officer, said: "No update."

In a statement on Sunday, McCabe said, "He underwent tests, was diagnosed with an infection and is being treated with intravenous antibiotics."

All nine of the supreme court justices are fully vaccinated and have received booster shots to protect against COVID-19. The public information office has said that Thomas does not have COVID and said that his symptoms are improving. He was expected to return home after “a day or two,” but he remains hospitalized.

CNN reported that Chief Justice John Roberts said in court on Wednesday, as he has done since the beginning of the week, that Thomas would read briefs and transcripts of oral arguments.
