CAR-T Meeting 2021 | The effect of COVID-19 on the experience of lymphoma patients undergoing CAR-T therapy

Lorna Warwick, Lymphoma Coalition, Toronto, Canada, discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health and access to treatment of lymphoma patients in Asia. The responses of lymphoma patients in 2018 and 2020 were used to gain insight into the patient experience before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Key findings included increased levels of anxiety and isolation, as well as difficulty accessing care, during 2020 compared to 2018. This interview took place during the 3rd European CAR T-cell Meeting.
