    In know. We’re putting patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer on endocrine therapy and delaying their surgery 8-12 weeks. (I hope that’s all they’re delayed.) Its generally safe to do, but I fear for even just one patient not responding.https://twitter.com/terrysimpson/status/1248021512218542080 …

    Opening hospitals to do more surgery is important- even elective operations often mean people who have disease that progresses

        This is the recommendation of multiple surgical specialty societies; so we’re doing it.

        Jana, I was 38 and found my stage 2a lump. I'm a 15 year survivor thanks to great care. I agree that waiting for surgery would be so scary. Glad you're well.

        We don’t save lives delaying surgery for a surge which does not arrive or is a ripple. In the 1964 Anchorage earthquake the tide in our town rose 1 foot - we evacuated for safety but knew when we could return to the shore
