During this period, 11 patients (15%) developed symptoms consistent with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and four (5%) tested positive. These data suggest that the higher risk of COVID-19 death associated with systemic therapy in cancer may not apply to patients on ICIs. Assessment of COVID-19 severity in these patients can be complicated by the underlying cancer and its treatment. Preliminary data suggest that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection (coronavirus disease 2019 ) is associated with higher mortality among cancer patients [1] . Current data on COVID-19 mortality among cancer patients group treatment modalities such as immune therapy and targeted therapy (n = 7) together, which is flawed [3] . The fever and cough resolved 5 d later, and the patient resumed his cancer treatment after completion of his self-isolation period. ./cache/cord-277189-fe8ego7f.txt ./txt/cord-277189-fe8ego7f.txt
