Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an “aggressive” form of prostate cancer “with metastasis to the bone.”
A statement from his personal office Sunday indicated: “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.
“While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
“The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians.”

Dr. Marc Siegel, Fox News’ senior medical analyst, told anchor Jon Scott: “I’m a little taken aback that it’s this far advanced.”
“I wouldn’t say it’s ominous, but I’d say it’s very, very concerning and clearly a life-threatening situation.”
He noted about “80% of men at the age of 80 have some prostate cancer cells in their body” and that “the five year survival rate is somewhere between 30% and 40%.”
Peter Doocy, the White House correspondent for Fox News, said, “It’s very sad to hear.”
“As far as the diagnosis, we just know what we’re told,” Doocy continued. “White House officials assured us through July of last year that he was healthy enough to serve another term.”
“Who knows how long they’ve actually known about it?”
