People v. Cancer:

Battling Cancer in the Time of COVID

What does it mean to live with cancer during a global pandemic?

As part of the People v. Cancer series, The Atlantic will illuminate stories from the frontlines of the cancer community, confronting two challenges this fall — cancer and COVID. We'll explore the latest science and the power of the human experience.
