摘要：
The COVID-19 pandemic has altered the course of events globally. Enforcement of lock down orders to curtail the spread of the pandemic had untoward consequences on the economy and health of the citizenry. In Nigeria, access to renal care was reduced by restriction of movement; inability to afford care due to economic downturn; suspension of transplant programs; uncertainties about dialysis guidelines; anxiety and reduced motivation of health care workers (HCWs) due to lack of government's commitment to their welfare and increasing rate of COVID-19 infection among HCWs. Formulation and implementation of policies to improve HCWs welfare and ease the burden of CKD patients should be prioritized in order to ensure optimal care of renal patients during the present pandemic.
