CAMO is committed to supporting its membership and cancer patients through these difficult times. Below are links to information/resources about the evolving situation with COVID19 for your reference and/or that may be of value to share with your patients. We invite our membership to share additional resources that may be helpful to medical oncologists trying to navigate cancer care during this time, and we will add them to our COVID-19 Resources page.
Please send additional resources to info@camo-acom.ca (these will be vetted by the Executive).
