Core Tip |
Maintenance hemodialysis patients, a group of patients with presumed high mortality, have been reported to experience worse outcomes of COVID-19, compared to the general population internationally. However, there is a considerable variation in the reported rates of disease remission and death between different continents and countries. In this article we present the outcomes of thirty two patients in chronic dialysis who became positive for COVID-19 in the era before vaccines became available. |
