ISN Represents the Global Nephrology Community Amidst COVID-19 Pandemic at this Week’s World Health Assembly in Geneva

On May 17th 2020, the ISN was proud to attend the 73rd World Health Organization General Assembly as the global leading society representing nephrology and renal healthcare. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the Health Assembly is taking place as a de minimis meeting,

At the Assembly, ISN joined discussions on the adoption of the COVID-19 Resolution. As part of our dedicated advocacy campaign to advance kidney health worldwide, ISN participation is crucial in calling for a timely treatment of acute and chronic kidney disease: due to the current pandemic, renal patients are likely to face interruption or unavailability of life-saving treatments such as dialysis and transplant.
