Special Episode #2: Coronavirus update

March 31, 2020

This second special episode of Upfront is in response to the constantly-changing coronavirus situation and the challenges many of our members are facing.

We’re joined by CEO Kirsten Pilatti and BCNA’s Director of Policy and Advocacy Vicki Durston, to discuss the rapidly-evolving coronavirus situation and the current state of play, provide tips for minimising risk for people with breast cancer as well as provide reassurance for people in our Network who have concerns about their treatment in light of coronavirus.

We take a deep dive in to how coronavirus is affecting people with breast cancer and offer ways that BCNA’s resources can help at this time. This podcast covers:

  • Collaboration across the cancer community in response to the pandemic
  • The opportunity that telehealth provides for those being treated for breast cancer
  • Emotional wellbeing
  • Financial support available

 

And much more.
