Debunking Trump’s Groundless Allegations on Biden's Cancer Diagnosis

Former President Joe Biden's office revealed on May 18 that he was diagnosed with an aggressive stage 4 prostate cancer two days earlier, linked to a prostate nodule. Speculation from President Donald Trump and others claims Biden's condition was hidden, although there's no verified evidence to support this. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends against routine screenings for men over 70, leaving the timing of Biden's diagnosis open to question. Following his diagnosis, Trump initially expressed concern for Biden’s health but later implied a cover-up, questioning the public's prior unawareness. Medical experts suggest Biden's cancer likely developed years ago, underscoring the complexities of prostate cancer detection, particularly in older men, and raising debates over current screening guidelines.
