Prostate cancer is the easiest cancer to diagnose when it first starts and to watch it progress to bone metastases. […] For even with the most aggressive form, it is a 5-7 year journey without treatment before it becomes metastatic. [...] It is highly likely he was carrying a diagnosis of prostate cancer throughout his White House tenure and the American people were uninformed.

Publisher’s rating: Unproven

DW describes Quay’s assertion that Biden was diagnosed with prostate cancer while president and that the public was uninformed as unproven. The review says Biden’s 2024 health summary did not mention the small nodule found during a routine physical exam the previous week; the excerpt does not establish when the cancer began.

Ich würde gerne wissen, wie Dr. Jill Biden Krebs im fünften Stadium übersehen hat. Oder ist dies eine weitere Vertuschung?

Publisher’s rating: Falsch

The review says the claim of “stage five” cancer is inaccurate: prostate cancer staging under the TNM system is generally described from I to IV, and Biden’s Gleason score of 9 is a different classification. It also notes that Jill Biden’s doctorate is in education, not medicine, and concludes that the allegation she overlooked his cancer is misleading.

Prostatakrebs ist der im Anfangsstadium am einfachsten zu diagnostizierende Krebs. [...] Denn selbst bei der aggressivsten Form dauert es ohne Behandlung 5-7 Jahre, bis er Metastasen bildet. [...] Es ist sehr wahrscheinlich, dass er während seiner Amtszeit im Weißen Haus bereits von der Diagnose Prostatakrebs wusste und das amerikanische Volk nicht darüber informiert hat.

Publisher’s rating: Unbelegt

DW says the allegation that Biden knew of his prostate cancer during his presidency and concealed it is unsupported. It notes that reporting and a book examining his health from 2021 to 2024 did not address the current prostate cancer diagnosis.

Claim: This post on X, which has been viewed over 270,000 times, allegedly shows Chinese fighter jets and a Chinese cargo plane flying over the Great Pyramid of Giza complex in Egypt on their way to drop aid and supplies to Gaza.

Publisher’s rating: DW Fact check: False The user who posted the clip on X on May 18, who identifies himself as a Kenyan parliamentary aspirant, describes the scenes as "iconic images." A reverse image search of the clip reveals a large number of posts with similar messages on other platforms, including YouTube, TikTok, Instagramand Threads. However, the footage is older and does not show aid delivery by the Chinese military. A reverse image search shows clips suggesting that the images are from April and refer to a military drill unrelated to Gaza. Here's one social media example in Portuguese. This context is further confirmed by an advanced internet search for military exercises in Egypt in the last few months. In April, China and Egypt launched their first joint military training, codenamed "Eagles of Civilization 2025," as confirmed hereby the Egyptian government and hereby the Chinese Ministry of Defence. Several pictures of the joint exercises were published by news agencies, including those of military jets flying over the pyramids. Furthermore, Chinese state-owned media outlet CGTN published video material of the exercise under the headline "Jets over pyramids."
