OSPINA-SERRANO, Aylen Vanessa et al. Care recommendations for patients with cancer and hematological neoplasms amid the COVID-19 pandemic in Colombia. rev.colomb.cancerol. [online]. 2020, vol.24, suppl.1, pp.241-251.  Epub 10-Maio-2021. ISSN 0123-9015.  https://doi.org/10.35509/01239015.701.

In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, declared in March 2020 by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Colombian Association of Hematology and Oncology (ACHO) has been issuing communications aimed at providing guidance to health professionals involved in the treatment of hematological and oncological patients.

Considering the pandemic mitigation phase we are currently facing, and the government's approach to progressively tapering-off the quarantine, we deem it important to release a new update.

These recommendations are not intended to impose a single conduct, since we understand that each case has particular characteristics and therefore it must be acted upon by individualizing each specific situation. The recommendations are based on documents issued by well-known cancer and hematological scientific associations, and are subject to change as more information becomes available.
