Sir,
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
(SARS‑CoV‑2), which first appeared in Hubei/China, has
spread worldwide quite rapidly since December 2019.[1] In
the current scenario, it is difficult to predict when and how
long the pandemic will continue. Patients with cancer are
also more susceptible to infection and more likely to have
serious events due to the immunosuppressive condition.
However, it seems as though patients of oncology were
not included in the management strategies during this
pandemic; they must be remembered and be able to continue
their treatments.
