Biden’s health scandals: Letters – Latest News
The Issue: Skepticism round former President Joe Biden’s latest prostate most cancers prognosis.
While I profoundly disagree with principally all the pieces former President Joe Biden stood for, I do offer my prayers concerning his present medical situation (“Prostate test last taken in ’14: rep,” May 21).
People discussing this on a nonstop foundation should notice that Biden, like the remainder of us, is protected by HIPAA legal guidelines.
His situation is no one’s business, so we need to knock off the nonsense of when he knew about it.
Never miss a probability to thoughts your own business. Let it go, and pray for the best for him.

An unholy alliance of mendacity DC Democrats and their corrupt media flunkies lined up the plain, dramatic decline of former President Biden.
They stayed silent, as a clearly enfeebled commander-in-chief cluelessly meandered from one extremely staged occasion to a different.
Meanwhile, on their collective watch, we witnessed a disastrous, lethal withdrawal from Afghanistan and two raging regional wars.
This unprecedented American political scandal is a borderline treasonous betrayal of trust that should be punished.
Democratic politicians who stored quiet ought to, on the very least, be faraway from workplace. Reporters who performed alongside ought to lose their jobs.

Quite a bit of the identical people who claimed COVID wouldn’t survive the nice and cozy climate at the moment are consultants on prostate most cancers, apparently.
I used to be identified with prostate most cancers 15 years in the past.
My physician, after successive blood assessments, observed my prostate-specific antigen (PSA) rating slowly going up.
Over a few years, it acquired to the purpose the place he really useful, however didn’t insist, on a biopsy.
The first consequence was inconclusive.
A second take a look at was really useful, however not ordered, by Johns Hopkins.
That take a look at got here back optimistic.
I share this as a result of there’s a lot of leaping to conclusions.
Yes, Biden might have had most cancers for years.
But his biopsy, ordered solely after the physician felt a arduous spot, is a completely regular sequence of occasions.
My physician had instructed me prostate most cancers is often, however not at all times, slow-growing.
So, to these armchair MDs: Don’t trash Joe Biden merely since you hate the person.

Yes, Biden has had prostate most cancers for a whereas.
Yes, he’s in a mental and bodily decline.
But, had he resigned as president, former Vice President Kamala Harris would have assumed the job; take into consideration that truth.
So possibly there was a coverup, however no less than we had been spared Kamala.

I’m not a fan of Joe Biden; he was the worst president on this nation’s historical past.
But I don’t want most cancers on him or anybody else.
However, if anybody is aghast on the timing of his most cancers prognosis, I refer you to this quote from Franklin D. Roosevelt: “In politics, nothing happens by accident.”
So all of us ought to take this announcement with a large grain of salt, as a result of it was meant to distract everyone from discussing his mental decline and the truth that he was incapable of working the nation. He was successfully working the nation into the ground.

If former President Biden’s PSA blood take a look at was being monitored because it ought to have been, PSA velocity — the speed at which the PSA rises — would have been famous.
Even comparatively small, gradual will increase will be vital in phrases of producing the need for a biopsy to detect potential most cancers.
The earlier the biopsy, the much less probability of high-grade, high-stage metastatic most cancers.
The public is entitled to know if Biden’s PSA velocity was monitored and the extent of surveillance utilized.
