Core Tip	In Chronic kidney disease mortality is still unacceptably high. Despite many “whistle-blowers” of a “naked” Emperor (Healthcare, polypharmacy without robust evidence), a change of mentality in clinical practice is slow. Examples are the absence of the patient’s participation in the decision making process, the low percentage of peritoneal dialysis in Europe and United States and the lack of algorithm-based therapeutic interventions. sodium-glucose co transporter 2 inhibitors are a positive example of evidence based multitask treatment. Coronavirus disease-19 is a good occasion for reflection and action as to a shift into patient-centered care.
