One month wait for lung biopsy normal?

I also have read some articles recently regarding a connection between covid and cancer, it goes on to say that the virus can cause cancer cells to reactivate. I’m wishing that it isn’t true and the information is still somewhat limited. I am a firm advocater for masks and I agree that they are not pleasant but getting respiratory infections with lungs that are weakened by disease is far more dangerous.

I read that one, too, @frouke and I was surprised to learn that both influenza and SARS-COV-2 caused the dormant cancer cells to awaken and proliferate within 2 weeks. I wish oncologists and cancer centers were more up to date in their masking policies to reflect these findings.
