About 2.4 million people are waiting for cancer care in the UK, because of disruption to the NHS in past 10 weeks, Cancer Research UK says

"The NHS has had to make very hard decisions to balance risk," she said.

"Prompt diagnosis and treatment remain crucial to give people with cancer the greatest chances of survival and prevent the pandemic taking even more lives."

'Disruption' id say due to out right stupidity and panic.

And dear god it could be too late for more of them than the total of covid deaths.

But but but , you BBC told us to stay home and save lives ... I guess you have not thought that through properly. What a shame.

Don't forget to clap on Thursday for the carers and the Tik Tok stars

2.4 million the price to save government ministers jobs

Yet people clapped for the NHS. Absolute farce.

In Germany, the hospitals had to cancel routine operations as well to leave beds vacant for virus patients, which did not come in the numbers expected. As a result, some hospital & clinics lost money as they charge the health insurance companies, unlike the NHS. Staff laid off

This is why so many with cancer are waiting for treatment in the UK. The worst public health response by the UK Gov in over 100 years. Now thousands more are expected to die from cancer.

NHS is no longer fit for purpose

Will any of their deaths be added to the COVID19 death toll ? I doubt it, some will say their deaths were inevitable. No cancer patients death is inevitable.

This is the true scandal, but you're obsessed about a guy who drove to Durham. Even the worst case forecast on Covid was 500k deaths, but how many people are dying because the NHS has locked people out of care?

And when the infection rate starts to creep back up are these poor people going to be moved down the list of priorities again?

But the media wont be ramming down our throats all the deaths that occur as a result.... no thoughts for these people and their families.

This will the second wave. It won't be Covid, it'll be the thousands and thousands of deaths caused by the consequences of lockdown.

My mate has stage 4 cancer and had her surgery cancelled at the very last minute 3 times during this fiasco... Eventually had it last week but the outlook is now not good.

Nice of you to catch up BBC...

Which is why the excess deaths amount is so high. People are not getting the treatment they need

All the destruction of modern civilization, from the ideological enslavement of the people of the mainland, to the suppression and insult to the compatriots in Hong Kong, to the aid support for the riots in the United States, all come from the evil Satanic Communist Party demon
