It’s understandable for #kidney patients, #dialysis patients and #transplant recipients to feel anxious about the recent outbreak of #COVID19. Talking to someone might help.

An interesting read that highlights kidney-specific consequences of COVID-19. We hope everyone is staying safe during this time.

Like #kidneydisease, #COVID19 disproportionately affects African Americans with higher death rates and lack of healthcare access. Together we must focus on tangible, results-focused and lifesaving work to address these disparities. kidney.org/news/statement…

Thank You to everyone that donated to the fundraiser for Covid Bail Out NYC! We were able to raise $1536.13 that will go towards paying bails for people currently in prison, as well as legal/medical support once they are released. Once again, thank you to everyone that donated!

Health disparities are preventable differences in the susceptibility to disease, injury, etc. that are experienced by socially disadvantaged groups.

Black Americans are and have always been systematically discriminated against due to racism. One alarming example has been in law enforcement, where black people are unjustly stereotyped, abused, and killed.
