Biden's 2022 comment about having cancer is going viral again. Here's what he actually meant. - Poynter
Briefly

Following Joe Biden's prostate cancer announcement on May 18, 2023, disinformation proliferated online, linking a 2022 speech where Biden mentioned cancer. Critics, including Donald Trump Jr., argued this indicated a hidden truth about his health. However, White House representatives clarified that Biden's references were about previously removed skin cancers, not prostate cancer. Furthermore, the term 'gaffe' was not used by White House communications. This misinformation coincided with a new book that critiques Biden's inner circle for allegedly concealing his health issues.
"WOW: Joe Biden said literally over TWO YEARS AGO that he had cancer. The Biden regime at the time called it a 'gaffe.' Have they been covering this up for YEARS?"
"There is no evidence that Biden's spokesperson or others from the White House called the comments a 'gaffe' related to his skin cancer treatment."
