Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer. The diagnosis is being described as an aggressive form of the disease, with a Gleason score of 9 and Grade Group 5–indicating that it has already spread to the bones– his office confirmed in a statement released Sunday, May 18.
Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel swiftly reacted to the news suggesting that Biden's cancer is "pretty far advanced." According to Siegel, the condition is typically caught earlier through routine screening for elevated Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) levels, but in Biden's case, it was identified through a physical prostate exam.
