Snippet: We read with great interest the recent article by Hugo et al. reporting comparable mortality following SARS-CoV-2 infection in 46 solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients compared in multivariable conditional logistic regression to 1380 controls without transplantation matched for known COVID-19 risk factors (1), and the responding letter by Budde et al. suggesting misinterpretation of the data due to a selection bias of the control population (2).

Document: We read with great interest the recent article by Hugo et al. reporting comparable mortality following SARS-CoV-2 infection in 46 solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients compared in multivariable conditional logistic regression to 1380 controls without transplantation matched for known COVID-19 risk factors (1), and the responding letter by Budde et al. suggesting misinterpretation of the data due to a selection bias of the control population (2). The latter fear that misleading conclusions could have detrimental effects on decision making concerning risk-stratification and immunizations strategies.
