COVID-19: RESOURCES FOR LYMPHOMA PATIENTS
Posted by T-Cell Leukemia Lymphoma Foundation
Your wellbeing is our priority...
Cancer patients, older patients, and people with serious chronic medical conditions are among some of the most vulnerable and at higher risk should they contract the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). We know this virus is impacting people in multiple ways: physically; emotionally; and financially. There is no "one-size fits all" solution - at this time, anyway - but we've compiled some excellent resources from our advocacy partners and others that will, hopefully, answer your questions, give you helpful tips, and provide you with various types of assistance, if needed.
