The White House reminded everyone that Biden had non-melanoma skin cancers removed before taking the oath of office.

In section 8 of President Biden’s Current Health Summary titled “Skin Cancer Surveillance, routine” under the “Current Health” section, the report states: “It is well-established that President Biden did spend a good deal of time in the sun in his youth.

He had several localized, non-melanoma skin cancer removed with Mohs surgery before he started his presidency. These lesions were completely excised, with clear margins.”
