Belong.life, a social networking and navigation platform used worldwide by more than 250,000 cancer patients and caregivers, has launched a COVID19 focused support group on its app, Belong-Beating Cancer Together.
The group called “Cancer and Coronavirus” allows members of the free and anonymous Belong.life app to pose questions to Daniel A. Vorobiof, M.D., Belong’s Medical Director and receive a response within 24 hours.
Questions in the group touch on several subjects, including treatment in light of COVID9, increased risks and social distancing considerations.
Sample topics discussed in the group include whether outdoor activities are advisable in the aftermath of the coronavirus pandemic and how long after a cancer diagnosis and treatment, patients should worry about being immunocompromised.
