Document: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVIDâ€19) caused by a novel coronavirus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirusâ€2 (SARSâ€CoVâ€2) is driving a present day global pandemic. Immunosuppressed patients are regarded as a highâ€risk cohort. The following is a short report on COVIDâ€19 in liver transplant recipients (n = 5) from a high volume UK liver transplant unit with a large followâ€up cohort (n = 4500). Based on this limited data, liver transplant recipients appear to have a low incidence of COVIDâ€19, with less severe symptoms than expected, when compared with the general population and other solid organ recipients. This possibly could be related to selfâ€isolation adherence and/or the ‘ideal’ level of immunosuppression that favourably modulates the immune response to COVIDâ€19.
