    AbstractIncreasing insight into the clinical phenotype and mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infections and COVID-19 has identified damage of the kidneys as a key player in the course of the disease. This manuscript updates our previous summary with current knowledge on kidney involvement in COVID-19 and chronic kidney disease as a risk factor for severe COVID-19, as well as recommendations regarding SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for patients suffering from chronic kidney disease and after organ transplantation, respectively. populations, SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is strongly recommended for all patients suffering from chronic kidney disease and after kidney transplantation.Thieme.
