Recently, de Barros Machado et al. reviewed the literature on the first 40 cases with a pooled case fatality rate of 20% (1). We present a retrospective description of 51 kidney transplant recipients (KTR) with confirmed moderate to severe COVID-19 pneumonia both through positive real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 in a respiratory specimen (n=48 patients); or positive serology IgM and/or IgG (n=3 patients).
