Joe Biden Diagnosed With “Aggressive Form” Of Prostate Cancer
Former president Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, according to media reports based on an official statement from his personal office.
Per the statement, Biden and his family are reviewing treatment options.
“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said. “While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.”
The news comes as Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson’s co-authored Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again, on the former POTUS’ cognitive decline, is set to be released on Tuesday.
