Chemotherapy in cancer patients with Covid-19 'not a risk'

Continuing chemotherapy and immunotherapy treatment in cancer patients with Covid-19 is not a risk to their survival, a study suggests.

They are also keen to investigate why UK cancer patients with Covid-19 in the study were more likely to die than in the three other countries.Dr David Pinato, from the department of surgery and cancer at Imperial College London, and study leader, said he was"concerned" by the figures and called for the UK to"acknowledge the mortality rate".

Men, the over-65s and those with other health conditions fared worse than other cancer patients with the virus - the same risk factors for the general population.

How is that even remotely possible? Their immune systems are already compromised and that could only add more stress to their already weakened or destroyed systems...

If the coronavirus was just a contributing factor or if it’s “assumed to have caused or contributed to death,” it can be listed as the primary cause.

Covid19 death rates have been massively over hyped. Thousands to be removed from death records now, basically an admission that the death rates were FAKE!

I started chemotherapy just as lockdown started. Treatment lasted 12 weeks.

Still clapping the NHS?

Yea a study suggest that the sun shines from my back side. ( I financied the study)

When will NHS doctors be prosecuted for their criminal malpractice since March?. They’ve killed thousands and condemned thousands more to death. Hospitals closed. Falsification of death certificates under government instructions to pad the numbers.

WINDRUSH GENERATIONS LEWIS HAMILTON MEDIA ALL BLACKS ARE SAYING WHITE LIVES DON'T MATTER English paying for the past Racist blacks like a pack of wolves kill young boy no outcry, Britain is racist towards whites WHITE LIVES DON'T MATTER

Not getting treatment while the hospitals were closed to everyone with long term illness yes definitely a risk.

WINDRUSH GENERATIONS English paying for the past Start respecting white children & women & stop being racist WHITE LIVES DON'T MATTER Still going on

Too late. The NHS have already killed thousands by closing our hospitals. Criminal

Discontinuing treatment would almost certainly be a greater risk, surely.

As if the long-term effects could now already be known

Covid-19 Vaccine Makers Signal PricesNew details are emerging about how much drugmakers J&J and Moderna are charging for coronavirus vaccines, with prices spanning from several dollars a dose to more than $70 for a regimen. Fuck Trump!!!! He is a thief stolen the TIKTOK from a chinese private company!!!! It's a massive pool of folks who need it. Their costs will be made back pretty quickly. The price of the vaccine is incomparably small next to the cost of not having a vaccine. This essentially makes the price of the vaccine ZERO. Maybe even negative dollars.
