新型冠状病毒SARS-CoV-2于2019年12月在中国武汉市首次被发现为呼吸道疾病。自那时以来，2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）影响了我们生活的方方面面。在社交距离和曲线平坦化等术语已成为我们日常用语的一部分的时候，我们必须了解可以实施哪些措施来保护我们的患者和医护人员。毫无疑问，医疗服务提供者必须迅速改变医疗服务模式，同时承认这些变化如何影响临床结果的关键未知数。本专题回顾了如何减缓COVID-19传播的策略，以努力降低未感染癌症患者、感染COVID-19的癌症患者以及护理他们的医护人员的发病率和死亡率，同时继续提供最佳的癌症护理。
The novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, was first detected as a respiratory illness in December 2019 in Wuhan City, China. Since then, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has impacted every aspect of our lives worldwide. In a time when terms such as social distancing and flattening the curve have become a part of our vernacular, it is essential that we understand what measures can be implemented to protect our patients and healthcare workers. Undoubtedly, healthcare providers have had to rapidly alter care delivery models while simultaneously acknowledging the crucial unknowns of how these changes may affect clinical outcomes. This special feature reviews strategies on how to mitigate transmission of COVID-19 in an effort to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with the disease for patients with cancer without infection, for patients with cancer with COVID-19 infection, and for the healthcare workers caring for them, while continuing to provide the best possible cancer care.
