Was Joe Biden awarded the medal of honor and four Nobel Peace Prizes and did he cure AIDS, cancer and autism? No, that's not true: The 46th U.S. president has achieved none of those accomplishments. The false claims appeared in a meme that suggested they would not be fact checked. That claim is also false, since Lead Stories has debunked the Biden claims.
The meme originated in a post (archived here) where it was published by rock star and conservative activist Ted Nugent on February 25, 2021. It read:
Joe Biden has the Medal of Honor, He's got 4 Nobel Peace Prizes. He's also cured AIDS, Cancer and Autism..... If you don't see a fact check under this maybe you'll open your eyes and understand.
This is what the post looked like on Facebook at the time of writing:

This meme is similar to another one debunked by Lead Stories in December 2020 which claimed that we would not fact check the claim that Biden was a war hero, a Rhodes Scholar and a Harvard law school graduate. You can read that fact check here.
