The doctor Kevin O’Connor has explained that he removed the injured tissue completely and that the biopsy confirmed that it was a basal cell carcinoma, one of the most common types of skin cancer. The area was “treated during the biopsy” and for now “does not need further treatment.”

At 80 years old, Joe Biden intends to run in the next elections of USA and repeat legislature in the White House, but his adversaries allude to his fragile state of health to cast doubt on his abilities. In recent months, the president has had some worrying episodes of memory loss and even balance, but his cabinet denied any problems in this regard and assured that he was perfectly fine.

These days his wife and first lady of the United States has become his best nurse and has not been separated from him, inside or outside the home. Last February, Jill Biden accompanied him in his second speech on the State of the Union and starred in an anecdote that went around the world: a kiss on the lips with Doug Emhoffthe husband of Kamala Harris.
