Nice.

• A study of 24,337 female patients found that COVID-19 is associated with a 2.47 hazard ratio for local breast cancer recurrence.
• COVID-19 infection with subsequent lymphopenia increases the risk of distant recurrence by 2.46 times.
• Patients who contracted COVID-19 but did not develop lymphopenia experienced no significant increase in recurrence risk.
• Baseline lymphopenia resulting from cancer treatment is an independent predictor of recurrence, and COVID-related lymphopenia adds additional risk.
• Viral infection can trigger a cytokine storm that leads to T cell exhaustion and decreased immune surveillance against cancer cells.

And yet folks don’t mask up, it is so worrying.
