When CLL Meets COVID-19 CLL Society is pleased to share with you the preeminent Spanish physician Prof. Dr. Emili Montserrat’s excellent commentary, recently published in BLOOD, reviewing two large studies on SARS-Cov2 infections in CLL patients. Prof. Dr. Emili Montserrat is one of the most prestigious and most cited leukemia and lymphoma specialists in the world. Please see Dr. Koffman’s summary (a commentary on a commentary!) which includes a link to the BLOOD article as well as links to the two important studies referenced. cllsociety.org/2020/09/when...
