During a speech on global warming on Wednesday, President Joe Biden claimed that he has skin cancer. He estimates that it is due to pollution and oil spills. This is written by several media, among others Newsweek.
“That’s why I and so many other people I grew up with have cancer, and why Delaware had the highest cancer rate in the country,” Biden said.
During the speech in Massachusetts, the president mentioned that specifically the emissions from oil refineries, located near his childhood home in Claymont, Delaware, polluted so much that people had to wipe oil off the windshield of their cars in order to drive.
– Meant what he said
No cancer detected
It is true that Biden – before taking office as president of the United States – had skin cancer.
But according to Biden’s doctor Kevin O’Connor, the 79-year-old is not currently suffering from any form of cancer. It comes out in one public report from the White House about the president’s health.
“There are no suspected areas of skin cancer at this time,” says the report from 2021.
White House spokesman Andrew Bates points to one Twitter-melding from Washington Post columnist Glenn Kessler, in which he points out that Biden had “non-melanoma skin cancer” (which is not mole cancer) before taking office.
It is still unclear why Biden chose to speak in the present tense about his experience with skin cancer.
Lightens the veil in a new book
“A lot of time in the sun”
Non-melanoma skin cancer is a common form of cancer that can especially occur among the elderly. It is usually not life-threatening.
According to Biden’s doctor O’Connor, the president’s skin cancer was caused by too much time in the sun without protection.
However, there is nothing in the report about exposure to climate emissions, as Biden himself claims.
“It is well established that President Biden spent a lot of time in the sun in his youth,” writes O’Connor in the report.

– Something is seriously wrong
Joe Biden (79) is the oldest American president ever, and several have repeatedly asked questions about his mental and physical health. Biden’s critics, mainly Republicans, believe he is too old and sloppy to run the country.
“Sleepy Joe” caught on camera
– What happens now? Those who demanded that Trump take a cognitive test, what are they doing? Something is seriously wrong with the man.
That is what the Republican congressman Ronny Jackson, who has been a doctor for both Donald Trump and Barack Obama, says Fox News.
Trump was not kind to the current US president during the election campaign. He basically accused him for being demented and calling Biden “Sleepy Joe”.
