Disruption to cancer diagnosis services (referrals and routine screening) and people avoiding healthcare because of the COVID-19 pandemic could result in around 3,500 potentially avoidable deaths from the four main cancers in England by 2025, according to new research published in The Lancet Oncology journal.
This may result in an increase of people suing the NHS for medical negligence due to diagnosis and treatment being delayed.
