Brief Summary
Starting in late 2019, the world is facing a pandemic with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Patients with end-stage kidney disease and on treatment with renal replacement therapy are high risk patients, as they are unable to maximize social distancing. We plan to gather epidemiological data using two different diagnostic approaches. We will compare a symptom-driven screening, in combination with a nasopharyngeal swab plus computed tomography (clinical approach) against serological surveillance.
