In a March 2020 video episode of the Empire State Conservatives Podcast — which has since been made private on YouTube — Santos tells the hosts that he “battled a brain tumor a couple of years ago.”
“I had radiation done, which really, really lowers your immunity in general,” Santos said, recounting his experience with COVID-19 in the early days of the pandemic.
During the roughly hourlong interview, Santos said he got COVID-19 in March 2020 and thought the response was “blown up,” noting that although his underlying health conditions would have made him more susceptible to serious illness, he was fine.

The Santos campaign has not responded to inquiries about where, when, and how he was treated for his brain tumor.
