Life and Love Stories During Corona Times: A General Public and Cancer Patient’s Experience

1. Abstract
1.1. Introduction
The past COVID situation clearly showed us how difficult relationships (either as oncology patients, or as a healthy human being/a couple) can be. Being socially isolated or precisely the opposite, e.g., living tightly together can become rather difficult during extreme situations. This paper focuses on the quality of social relationships during the COVID pandemic and beyond; differences between the Spanish and Dutch population will be compared.
