Foreword: Colorectal Cancer Screening: Where We Are and Moving Forward
As I write the Foreword to this issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America devoted to “Colorectal Cancer Screening,” the COVID-19 pandemic continues to rage. Tens of thousands of Americans will die of respiratory complications of the highly contagious coronavirus infection. Mandatory “social distancing” is widely declared in cities and states across the country. In many place s, all elective gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy procedures have been put on hold, including colonoscopies for colorectal cancer screening.
