Do you know what specialty was not listed? Urology

This is deflection from the Hur report.

Two things can be true. He can have progressive cancer and he has been confused for quite some time.



Men his age are not routinely screened for prostate cancer.

If he had no symptoms, there would be no reason for him to see a urologist.

Stop with the paranoid fiction.


It’s unlikely he did not have symptoms.

It is possible that Biden is so mentally degraded at this point that he did not recognize the symptoms and could not report them.

The situation is very sad.


It is not “unlikely”. You. Don’t. Know.

But did you see that Trump got another $2 billion bribe and the House is trying to pass a bill that stops the regulation of AI for 10 years and doesn’t allow the courts to enforce contempt charges against the feds?

Pay attention America.

Men of a certain age should be tested regularly for prostate cancer. It is very common in older men, typically slow moving, and responds well to treatment when caught early. But, depending on the age of the patient, sometimes a decision is made that the treatment will cause more harm than the disease. As others have noted, for many men they will die "with" prostate cancer, rather than "from".

Perhaps, after diagnosis, the Biden's determined that it was worth the risk to not treat immediately. Maybe they just recently discovered it was more aggressive than they originally hoped.


I know two men of advanced age who have been treated for prostate cancer. One very recently who is approaching 80. The other about 10 years ago and is now 90. Both had aggressive treatments. The other is late '70's and scheduled for surgery this month.

Maybe, it is not "protocol" but they do check for it. It is unlikely there were no symptoms and it is unlikely, in my view, that the Bidens have not known for quite some time.

Does anyone know how to send a get well card to Biden? I'm sure he has an office in Delaware. Please advise if you know.

Eff thst. I will sell blood to pay for DH PSA tests.


You really think he didn't have a PSA test?

Interesting that they released a statement from his doctor last year that included a number of reviews of his physical from doctors at Walter Reed/Bethesda. A long list of specialists. Interesting, that there was no urologist mentioned. I do not believe that was happenstance that it was left out.
They knew.

DH has PSA done every year and has for many years. For awhile, when there were some jumps, he had it every six months.

Another lie here?


I agree.

The odds of being diagnosed with late-stage prostate cancer are low for the average person, let alone POTUS.

Come on. We know a lot about the progression of prostate cancer. We do know it is unlikely he did not have symptoms. Now, whether he understood those symptoms is another matter.

And stop with the Trump distraction. It is not at issue here. Trump is a disaster. That doesn’t mean Americans cannot ask questions about the health of the formerly most powerful man in the world. We need to ask about Trump’s health too. It’s people like you, who refuse to look critically at their own side, that are destroying this country. If Democrats had had the courage to speak up in the face of Biden’s obvious decline, Trump would likely not be president. Your refusal to be honest about the failures of “our” side, to harshly silence any questions and criticisms, directly caused the Trump presidency.

If you're so Christian you will pray for him and hope for the best. Prayers are being sent to President Biden.


He clearly didn't get good screenings to prevent it from spreading before getting diagnosed but hopefully a good rad-onc-surgery team would get him cancer free in few months. Due to his age, probably it would take a toll on his health but he is unlikely to die of cancer.

Not commenting on Biden one way or the other but my dad died from aggressive prostate cancer. He was checked regularly based on family history and had no symptoms. So it’s possible, if unlike. He was also a decade plus younger than Biden when he died and didn’t have any cognitive issues until the last week or two before he died.

You come on. It’s not a distraction. It’s appalling that Americans and the media are making Biden cancer “coverup” theories THE story when we have big, dangerous changes taking place in our country NOW. Making Biden a big story and all these attempts at making it a conspiracy IS the distraction.

It is just another thing they were lying to us about for years.

True. Average men his age don't get screened for prostate cancer but he wasn't an average man with an average PCP. He was our POTUS with a whole medical team with free access to every possible tool at their disposal.

Jill especially. She knew.

Think about all the times she essentially said “of course Joe is fit to serve another four years.”

Likely and they would do it if needed for Trump as well.

Probably.

But that doesn’t make it right, now does it.

Considering the alternative was Trump, 💯 correct.

Your statement holds no water because Trump has not released any medical records. So you can rant all you want about a cover-up, but the real scandal is that we know nothing about Trump’s health. Those are the questions people should be asking.
