Kidney Care UK: Coronavirus (COVID-19) guidance for patients with kidney disease (updated 13 March 2020)

Summary

Kidney Care UK has been working with medical colleagues and partners on information and advice about COVID-19 specifically for people with kidney disease. Their web page contains guidance for kidney patients and also information on the action that NHS renal services are taking during this outbreak.

Further guidance is being developed for those on dialysis; those with a transplant; those with renal diseases who depend on immunosuppressant medication; those with declining kidney function; and those with chronic kidney disease. At the moment your current treatment plans will not change. However, advice is being updated on a daily basis so please do refer back to Kidney Care UK's page as it will be updated in response to any developments.
