How COVID19 effect Cancer patient

Many individuals are worried about whether they may be at risk as the COVID-19 virus spreads,  notably in those with cancer. The body's immune system may be temporarily suppressed as a result of cancer treatment. Therefore, we must be aware of the COVID-19 virus,  and know how to take care of ourselves in order to build a protective barrier for the body.            

                           
Does "Low immunity" make you more vulnerable than anyone?    

                                   
"The 2019 new corona virus or as we have known since the beginning of the year 2020 in the name of the COVID-19 virus, one of the epidemic spread through a variety of variables, both from humans, animals and objects, especially from humans who spray phlegm from normal coughing and sneezing until the number of infected people exceeds a million people around the world today.
Especially if someone's "immunity" is lower and infected with this disease. The chances of germs damaging the lungs and other organs are higher, usually in the following groups:        
Elderly group        


The majority of deaths from the coronavirus, according to the statistics range in age from 60 to 80, and a common characteristic among them are lung health issues. This is associated with the coronavirus, which seeks to harm the lungs and respiratory system. As a result, your chance of dying increases with age.

Individuals with underlying disease        
People with underlying disease, notably cancer patients who are less able to defend themselves against the virus than healthy individuals, are at least five times more likely to contract the coronavirus than the general population. For lack of immunity, this results in the unavoidable loss of a crucial combatant that guards the body against infection. Cancer patients must therefore pay particular care to their health.        
5 ways to take care of cancer patients In the midst of the CoVid-19 situation
Many people may be aware of the cancer treatment process that the body's immune system is at its weakest after the patient has just undergone chemotherapy or high-dose radiation therapy. Because of this, cancer patients are more susceptible to infections than the general population. Not just the COVID-19 virus, either.  

     
In addition to the most basic safeguards, including using a sanitary mask, wash your hands frequently with alcohol gel (70%), or with soap (at least 20 seconds) and use individual utensil. Cancer patients should constantly practice a variety of self-care techniques.  The following five techniques can help reduce the high risks as low as possible:

 

  • Stay at home as much as possible.
  • Avoid touching or being close to someone with respiratory symptoms or have flu-like symptoms
  • Prepare enough medicines and necessary medical supplies during the long stay at home
  •  Refrain from allowing others to visit unnecessarily.
  • Requiring only one caregiver
