Abstract
- •Covid-19 pandemic can have implications for MS and neuroimmunology patients and potentially their adherence to disease modifying therapies (DMTs).•A large proportion of patients receiving DMT's for their MS expressed some degree of concern regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and their therapy in one MS centre in Australia.•The level of concern in most patients was at most mild however.•Patients ascribed similar concern to the risk of a relapse of their disease compared to the risk of contracting COVID-19, perhaps underscoring a willingness to continue their DMT despite the pandemic.
