Dear ASDIN Colleagues,

As the humanity worldwide reels under the impact of COVID-19, we all have a duty to help in preventing dissemination of this pandemic. Prevention of this illness would help to save our existing limited resources to fight many other diseases including kidney disease.

Please note that it is recommended that elective, non-urgent cases can be postponed until the situation is under better control. We do realize that dialysis access issues are usually urgent and cannot wait indefinitely, but perhaps these procedures should be considered based on individual priority.

ASDIN has created a resource on our website that has links from CDC, NTDS and some LDOs for your ready reference. This resource is available to both members and non-members considering its importance.  Click here to access this resource page.  

I speak for the ASDIN Executive Committee when I say ASDIN is committed to serving our members during this uncharted time. We are continually evaluating how best to support our membership.  We welcome your feedback, comments, questions, and suggestions.  Please feel free to reach out to ASDIN leadership through email - info@asdin.org - if there is an area of concern that ASDIN may address.

Sincerely,
