The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has significantly impacted young adult colorectal cancer survivors, leading to delays in cancer-related care, income loss, and poorer mental health. Survivors aged 20-29 are particularly affected, with a majority experiencing delays in cancer care and income loss, highlighting the need for specific support and resources.
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has disrupted health care globally with dramatic impacts on cancer care delivery in addition to adverse economic and psychological effects. This study examined impacts of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on young adult colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors diagnosed age 18-39 years. Nearly 40% reported delays in cancer-related care, loss of income, and poorer mental health during the pandemic. Impacts were greater for survivors aged 20-29 years, with nearly 60% reporting cancer care delays and 53% experiencing income loss. Such impacts may result in detrimental downstream outcomes for young CRC survivors, requiring specific support, resources, and continued monitoring.
