Abstract
The new coronavirus pandemic has spread rapidly globally and has been identified as an emergency that implies international concern. The World Health Organization declared the condition a pandemic, which began in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. This zoonotic coronavirus has prompted many scientists to study it in order to accurately define the mechanisms of infectivity and the rate of human-to-human transmission. Covid- 19 is a deadly virus, manifesting in atypical pneumonia and resulting in a variety of unusual survival outcomes. Cancer patients may be immune-compromised due to the underlying malignancy and are considered to be twice as likely to be infected with Covid-19. Malignant pathology is complex and results in multisystem symptomatology. Hence the challenge of considering the multifactorial impact of coronavirus in cancer patients, causing consequences for their psychological, social, emotional, and cognitive status, as well as a different allocation of resources and a new approach to monitoring them.
Highlights
Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that can manifest from the common cold to the development of severe forms of the virus
Chemotherapy protocols are administered at regular intervals at the certain time, with regular monitoring and response to therapy. Because of these facts that cancer patients at the time of the current pandemic should be closely monitored, they always want to get more information about the multifactorial effect of the virus on their general health because they are immunocompromised with frequent infectious conditions from the treatment of primary malignancy and fall into the vulnerable category who are at higher risk
The outcome of chemotherapy, either achieving a therapeutic response in patients with malignant disease and who have been infected with coronavirus SARS Cov2, imposes the need to pay close attention to long-term prospective monitoring, due to the numerous complications and consequences that can be from the disease and from the virus
