Former Biden COVID advisor and Obamacare architect Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel said Monday that former President Joe Biden likely had cancer<\/a> since the beginning of his presidency, if not before.<\/p>\n

Biden’s office confirmed in a statement on Sunday that he had been diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer<\/a> that “was characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Based on the advanced state of the cancer, Emanuel, an oncologist, told MSNBC\u2019s “Morning Joe” that Biden would most likely have had the cancer for “more than several years.”<\/p>\n

Host Joe Scarborough stopped him to clarify, “So this is not speculation. If you have prostate cancer that has spread to the bone, then most certainly you are saying he had it when he was President of the United States.”<\/p>\n

“Oh, yeah. He did not develop it in the last 100-200 days,” Emanuel said. “He had it while he was president. He probably had it at the start of his presidency in 2021. I don’t think there’s any disagreement about that.”<\/p>\n

Scarborough pointed out how some men over the age of 70 choose not to get a prostate exam but added “most men aren\u2019t President of the United States.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Emanuel said that it\u2019s often a discussion between patients and doctors but agreed it\u2019s concerning when it involves a sitting president.<\/p>\n

“President Obama had this test. President Bush had this test. It is a little surprising that the doctor didn\u2019t take it. And if he took it and didn\u2019t report it, and it was elevated, that is another case of doctors not being straightforward with us – we\u2019ve had several of them with President Trump, especially around his COVID diagnosis – and if that is true, that would be very troubling,” Emanuel said.<\/p>\n

He added that it was possible for a test to miss this stage of cancer but called it “unlikely.”<\/p>\n

“Either they didn\u2019t test for it, or they test for it [and] they didn\u2019t report it. And we didn\u2019t get the information as a public,” Emanuel said.<\/p>\n
