Abstract

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a world-wide health crisis on a scale that has not been witnessed in modern times. Socio-economic (SE) factors impact every facet of human existence, including lifestyle, which significantly affects health-related quality of life. This article compiles major studies and discusses health disparities based on SE and community status in cardiovascular and cancer patients with a special focus on cardio-oncology in the context of COVID-19.
