Coronovirus

Hi there,

I have decided to open this new topic where I hope that people will post information on how the coronovirus affects men with prostate cancer.
Already it seems that;
Restrictions on travel eg from the USA to Europe and vice versa may affect men that are seeking testing and treatment overseas.
Men that are immune suppressed maybe more likely to contract the virus or suffer worse.
It may become difficult or hazardous to go to routine appointments. I joke about the hospital being full of sick people but the hospital that does my routine care is now designated as one of the regional centres for coronovirus treatment. If there is nothing to report I might try and have my end of March quarterly chat over the phone, I can see the doctor in person later.

Best wishes,

Georges
