Core Tip

Core Tip: I have several comments on the article titled as ‘Impact of COVID-19 in patients with lymphoid malignancies’. The author did not emphasize a couple of issues related to the effects of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in various lymphoid malignancies. This letter helps to clarify these issues more in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients with hematological malignancies.
