Abstract
Presentation by Dr. Jason Gurney, Department of Public Health, University of Otago, Wellington on the impact of COVID-19 on cancer registrations in New Zealand. For lung cancer, disparities in lung cancer registration and bronchoscopy rates widened between Māori and non-Māori/non-Pacific patients as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is was largely the result of disruption by the pandemic to the pathways by which Māori tend to present with subsequent diagnosis.
