US President Joe Biden was not informed for around a month that his defense chief Lloyd Austin had prostate cancer, the White House said on Tuesday, calling the lapse “not optimal”. “He was informed by the chief of staff earlier this morning and I’m not going to go into more detail on that,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told a briefing. Austin was diagnosed early December and underwent surgery on December 22.
