*
Calculations: The incidence, mortality, and case fatality rates were calculated as follows: Incidence = number of cases from 03/01/2020 until the end of the current report 10/01/2021 / number of exposed people per 10,000. Mortality = number of deaths due to COVID-19/number of exposed people per 10,000. Fatality = (number of confirmed deaths due to COVID-19/number of confirmed COVID-19 cases)

100. HD: Hemodialysis; PD: Peritoneal dialysis; ǂ Mild disease: patients not requiring hospitalization; Moderate disease: patients requiring hospitalization or oxygen necessity; Severe disease: intensive care unit (ICU) admission, respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation (MV), shock, or death.
