A8. Health equity is a complex issue. It must be addressed on multiple fronts and requires an alliance of different groups. #AskReuters #ASCO21 #CIM21
A1. In a webinar in January with the associate director of our Scientific Advisory Council Dr. @KunleOdunsiMD of @UCCancerCenter said, “So when the pandemic started, there was a lot of discussion about how best to manage patients." #AskReuters #ASCO21 #CIM21
Q2. What is the importance of screening and testing to enable an accurate diagnosis of lung cancer? What role can precision medicine play in treatment? #AskReuters #ASCO21
A1. Some big databases showed a dramatic drop in lung cancer diagnoses. Still waiting to see long term effect of this. Will more patients present with late stage cancer? #AskReuters #ASCO21 #lcsm
A1. Generally, we are seeing some normalization but there is significant variations in re-start rates across the country and globe.
@LaurenYoung A1. I have seen delays in patients getting scans and biopsies that led to delays in treatment and to worse outcomes — including catching potentially curable cancer too late. Thankfully this has improved significantly compared to the same time last year. #AskReuters
@LaurenYoung Lung cancer screening, a critical tool for early diagnosis which improves patient outcomes, was disrupted during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Important to encourage a return to preventative care as we all recover from the pandemic
A1. #COVID19 has taught us that #Telemedicine can be integrated seamlessly into our clinical practice #AskReuters #ASCO21
A1. Biomarker Testing is exceedingly important so that we can deliver precise therapies #AskReuters #ASCO21
Q1. What should everyone know about lung cancer now? And what are the key ways the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted lung cancer diagnoses, treatments as well as patient outcomes? #AskReuters #ASCO21
JUST ADDED! @CharuAggarwalMD of @PennMedicine is joining today's #AskReuters on Advancements in Lung Cancer. If you have questions about lung cancer (care, treatment, stigmas, etc.), our experts have answers, so be sure to join us in an hour. #LCSM #ASCO21
@Joshuawolf and @SSCLabQuips of @StJudeResearch answering COVID-19 vaccine questions at #askreuters. Smart people saying smart things!
@LaurenYoung I am nothing if not enthusiastic, @LaurenYoung !!!!! #AskReuters
The #AskReuters team admires your use of exclamation points, @Joshuawolf !!!
When is it safe to get vaccinated after being infected with COVID-19? This is a million dollar question!!! It’s definitely *safe* as soon as your symptoms have resolved - @CDCgov says it’s ok to wait 90 days, because reinfection is rare during that period. #AskReuters
@LaurenYoung Thank you for an informative and interesting chat! #ReutersHealth #ASCO18
