COVID-19 and the Environment: Pandemics, Climate, and Ecosystems, and the Environmental Challenge in Dialysis

Abstract

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the population worldwide. Patients with chronic kidney disease treated with kidney replacement therapy were no exception because they were considered highly vulnerable due to multiple comorbidities. The consequences of the physical, biological, and ecological system on the environment as a result of human activity represent a huge global health care danger. The purpose of this article is to identify strategies that improve environmental sustainability, improve prevention of COVID-19 infection in dialysis centers, and improve the environmental impact of hemodialysis centers.
