(NewsNation) — Former President Jimmy Carter is not dead, despite false reports on social media that appears to have duped some traditional media and politicians.

The Carter Center confirmed to NewsNation that there’s been no change in Carter’s health.

Several media outlets fell for a false statement online which purported to be from the “Office of Jimmy Carter.”

The 39th president is currently aged 99. Carter will become a centurion on Oct. 1.
