WASHINGTON—Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer just months after his first term came to an end, his representatives said Sunday.
Biden received the diagnosis of prostate cancer with metastasis to the bone after he was experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. “While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management. The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians,” according to a statement from Biden’s personal office.
Biden bowed out of the presidential election last summer after a calamitous debate against Donald Trump, with his vice-president, Kamala Harris, then given the Democrats’ nomination.
