Abstract

These articles examine the multifaceted impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This paper delves into the specific challenges faced by CKD patients, including increased susceptibility to severe illness, disruptions in healthcare access, and exacerbation of underlying health conditions. Drawing from recent research and clinical observations, this study sheds light on the complex interplay between COVID-19 and CKD, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support mechanisms to mitigate adverse outcomes. By synthesizing insights from epidemiology, nephrology, and public health, this paper offers valuable perspectives for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and researchers seeking to address the unique needs of CKD patients in the context of the ongoing pandemic.
