Doctors in New York City say people hospitalized with severe cases of COVID-19 are experiencing kidney damage. I would say close to 50 percent of the (COVID) patients in the ICU setting are developing acute kidney injury,” said Dr. Michael J. Ross, chief of the division of nephrology at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx. Ross added that 20 to 30 percent of people in the ICU are requiring some form of dialysis to stay alive.😱 Many of the people requiring dialysis reportedly had healthy kidneys before developing COVID-19.

Dr. Shivam Joshi is a nephrologist and primary care physician in New York City. 📌He says recent reports from China show that a much higher number of people with COVID-19 are experiencing acute kidney injury than was initially suggested. “It was originally reported that only 0.5 percent affected in China had acute kidney injury, but now that number is 3 to 9 percent of cases or higher.

💡The kidneys filter out extra blood, toxins, and electrolytes that build up in the blood as we eat and drink, and as our tissues break down. If the kidneys don’t work, these toxins build up in the blood. People who are severely ill with COVID-19 are at risk of their kidneys completely shutting down.

When that occurs and is accompanied by significant amounts of tissue damage, toxins build up in the blood, and there are disturbances to electrolyte levels that can make the heart stop. 👉Dialysis treatment acts as a way to clean the blood of excess toxins, and without it, doctors say people will die. “A lot of these patients when they’re very sick actually have increased need for kidney function because there’s a lot of tissue breakdown, which releases a lot of toxins into the bloodstream, so they have an even bigger need to have their blood clean,” Ross said.
