The purpose of this study is to understand the impact of COVID-19 on patients with cancerthrough a survey.
The global spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) is affecting cancer patients and their
treatments. Cancer patients are among those at high risk of developing serious illness
from an infection because their immune systems are often weakened by cancer and its
treatments. Due to the growing coronavirus outbreak, patients clinic visits are being
cancelled and many are facing social isolation and strict restrictions on their daily
lives. We want to evaluate the impact of the coronavirus on the patient's well-being and
their cancer care by assessing the delays in their medical care and any other unmet
needs. We have created a survey that is available online for any patient with cancer to
fill out voluntarily regarding their experiences to date. The survey is available at:

2. Patients who opt in to complete the survey.
3. Patients must have the capacity to verbally consent for the interview.
Exclusion Criteria:
