Hoover Institution senior fellow Victor Davis Hanson announced Friday that he was undergoing a major medical operation after discovering a “serious” health issue.
Hanson made the announcement on his show, “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” and stated that he was presented with a “serious problem” that was difficult to diagnose. He will undergo surgery on Tuesday and take a break from hosting his show during his recovery.
“I’m having a major operation, and I’ve got a major problem and I’m gonna have a major effort to solve it and that’s all I can do,” Hanson said. “And I finally ended up going to the best medical center that I think that I know, Stanford Med, and the people there are wonderful. It’ll work out one way or the other.”

Hanson said many viewers noticed that he sounded hoarse and unwell. After nine months of testing, medical professionals recently discovered his ailment after he underwent a biopsy, prompting Hanson to decide to go through with the operation.
“I don’t want to talk about my own problems, but I’ve had people call me and say, ‘You don’t look well, you’re hoarse, or you’re coughing.’ But it’s been a nine-month odyssey because the problem I had for a nonsmoker and nondrinker was a rare type and very hard to diagnose, so it’s no one’s fault other than my own perhaps for not realizing why I was not getting well,” Hanson said.
The show’s co-host, Jack Fowler, will continue to host the show during Hanson’s absence.

He fought the good fight. He was very effective in the pre-Covid era.
VDH, Scott Adams, Mark Steyn, Jordan Peterson. Our side has a lot of health problems.
I love this man. I wish him the very best care and outcome.
And not that old. Only 60s and 70s.
Horrible news for the right.
First Kirk then our loss now Hanson????
WTH
Prayers for a good man.
Prays for VDH! And for the medical team.
Please don’t speak of him in past tense.
-PJ
A national treasure. I am praying for him.
yes. prayers for VDH and nothing but positivity sent out into the Universe. he is of strong spirit - so hoping for a quick and astounding recovery.
-PJ
First Breitbart, then Rush, then Kirk, now Hanson????
Jordan Peterson isn’t doing so well, either, and we all know about Dennis Prager.
Praying for our dear VDH!
The man is a national treasure. God heal him and allow a long, long life.
IT *does* seem that a lot of icons of the Right get hit with cancer. Your list is VERY partial.
I believe so.
We should pray for him:
Dear Lord,
Please watch over this good man. Give his medical team the knowledge and skill to diagnose and address the serious health issue he has encountered. If it is your will, restore him to health, allow his voice to carry to a nation, even with its flaws, still a force for good in this world. Give him strength, hold him close, and comfort his family in this trying time. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray to you.
Amen.
Adams and Peterson did.
