Some viral infections lead to tumourigenesis explained by a variety of underlying molecular mechanisms. Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have the potential to be added to this list due to their diverse mechanisms in biological functions and disease processes via gene alternation, transcriptional regulation, protein modification, microRNA sponging and interaction with RNA/DNA/proteins. In this review, we summarise the dysregulation and mechanism of lncRNAs in virus‐related cancers focussing on Hepatitis B virus, Epstein‐Barr virus, Human Papillomavirus. We will also discuss the potential implications of lncRNAs in COVID‐19.
