“…The first Belgian case of COVID-19 was diagnosed on 4 February 2020, with lockdown on 18 March, peak on 7 April 2020, and then exponential decline. On the French-speaking side, 3 almost all dialysis units had cases, and a few had large outbreaks involving 19-65% of patients. Aggressive detection and case isolation policies, coupled with systematic mask use, were introduced early in our unit and others.…”

Common across countries, published center and regional experiences report lower infection risk among home dialysis patients, but also confirm that outcomes among infected persons are poor for both home and in-center dialysis patients, with case fatality ratios of at least one in ten for persons diagnosed by targeted testing.…”
