COVID-19 and Cancer Coalition
Table of Contents
Collective Action for Solutions
The COVID-19 and Cancer Coalition is a group of over 30 key oncology thought leaders and stakeholders. This coalition is working to understand the current and ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lives of people impacted by cancer and develop evidence-based solutions in response.
As the COVID-19 pandemic persists, cancer patients and survivors have found it challenging to receive necessary health care and support services. In the wake of the pandemic, many are experiencing barriers to care such as financial strain and mental health stressors. Evidence regarding the short- and long-term impact of the pandemic on people impacted by cancer is evolving and must be captured in order to develop lessons learned and ultimately solutions.
