Dr Zoe Venables- National melanoma incidence statistics during the Covid-19 pandemic

Consultant Dermatologist, Dr Zoe Venables present findings on national melanoma incidence during the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pandemic,
having access to up-to-date healthcare data became essential to understand the wider effects it was having on our health. The cancer registry in England (National Disease Registration Service) developed the Rapid COVID Registration Dataset which, for the first time, published cancer counts much more rapidly than standard cancer registration. This allowed a better understanding of the effect of the pandemic on our cancer diagnoses and service provision.
