The global communities have been grappling with health pandemics for months since
the outbreak of COVID-19, which has been flagged a global health emergency by
World Health Organisation, WHO. While the entire health sector has been
overburdened, cancer patients are also at a high risk of getting infected during
this COVID-19 pandemic; hence, there is a great concern for these patients
because there is little to no data to support their management with the current
health care structure in Africa. This article outlines the challenges that
frontline health workers face in the management of cancer patients, as the entire
health sector calls for effective policy formulation and implementation by the
government in their role in ensuring the sound health of their citizenry.
