Dr Fosker: “Covid-19 & Cancer Care In Bermuda”
Dr Chris Fosker, a radiation oncologist at the Bermuda Cancer & Health Centre [BCHC], had an article — titled “Covid-19 & Cancer Care In Bermuda” — published in The Lancet, which is considered to be quite a prestigious publication in the medical arena.
The article, which can be read in full here, details the changes made with cancer care due to the pandemic, with the physician sayng, “the normal workflow of day-to-day work has altered drastically in weeks, moving to video consulting, scheduling staff rotas to minimise the risk of infection between team members, procuring personal protective equipment, and developing protocols for its use.”
“Outside the medical field in Bermuda, there has been an incredible willingness to help. This is where a small island community comes into its own. The 60000 of us living here have to share its 20 square miles. We can only do that if we work together,” Dr Fosker notes.
