in treatment. Also, cancer screenings are down, meaning many conditions will worsen while the health system diverts to fight the virus. At the same time, the pandemic is creating bottlenecks in care.
"We've always said we have to do everything immediately in cancer care," but oncologists and patients are having to wait or start other treatments instead as they wait for surgery. Nor will it be able to happen quickly. Cancer patients with weakened immune systems are at greater risk of infection — and that risk continues, even as states start to reopen. Their risk varies by community even within a region, so doctors will have to weigh when it's safe to operate in their local area. And as they resume widespread treatment, each doctor, medical practice or treatment center will face the challenge of determining who receives care first.

Urgent Medical operations Must have continued regardless of the Pandemic, especially if the patient consented knowing the situation. The CoronavirusPandemic is still existing, it's just been lulled due to the StayAtHome to save more lives. I would be running to do it now, NOW
This is very real.
Shout-out to the sky-is-falling liberals. Causing death through their fear mongering

And it is squarely on the media's lap. Way to go MSM for giving everyone PTSD and shaming government into committing public-health and economic suicide. Nice. MSNBC CBSNews NYTNational cnnbrk CNN and any other two-bit, Soros TDS TheDemocrats mouthpiece.
