The former US president, 82-year-old Joe Bayden, was diagnosed with an “aggressive form of prostate cancer”, reports The New York Times with reference to Biden’s press secretary. According to the newspaper, the diagnosis was made on Friday, on May 16, after the doctors examined Biden because of urination and discovered a “small knot” on The prostate, which demanded a “further examination”. NBC News adds that oncological disease found in Biden is characterized by bone metastases. “Although this is a more aggressive form of the disease, cancer is apparently sensitive to hormones, which allows you to treat it effectively,” the press secretary said. According to him, Biden and the family of the former president are studying treatment options with doctors. (Tagstotranslate) News
