Radiation Treatments and Covid-19

Flutegirl

I had a lumpectomy with bi-lateral oncoplastic reduction on February 13, and a re-excision and sentinel node biopsy on February 27 due to a macro invasion. The incision was slow to heal due to seroma's that developed and began leaking but that is finally under control and I received the green light last week to proceed with radiation. I had my CT sim on Friday and I'm awaiting my treatment schedule - although I know it will be five days a week for four weeks and I expect it will start the week of April 27. My question is what others have been told about possible increased susceptibility to Covid-19 while undergoing radiation treatments. I'm sure those receiving chemotherapy are more immune-suppressed, but I've not been able to find anything about radiation treatments. Thanks in advance!

My RO said that radiation would not have any effect on my immune system
