Whether disparities in COVID-19 39 incidence related to race/ethnicity and socioeconomic factors exist in the hemodialysis population is 40 unknown. 41 <b>Methods</b> Our study involved patients receiving in-center hemodialysis in New York City. We 42 used a validated index of neighborhood social vulnerability, the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), which 43 comprises 15 census tract–level indicators organized into four themes: socioeconomic status, 44 household composition and disability, minority status and language, and housing type and 45 46 transportation. We examined the association of race/ethnicity and the SVI with symptomatic COVID-19 47 between March 1, 2020, and August 3, 2020. COVID-19 cases were ascertained using PCR testing. We 48 performed multivariable logistic regression to adjust for demographics, individual-level social factors, 49 dialysis-related medical history, and dialysis facility factors. 50 <b>Results</b> Of the 1378 patients on hemodialysis in the study, 247 (17.9%) developed symptomatic 51 COVID-19. In adjusted analyses, non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic patients had significantly increased 52 odds of COVID-19 compared with non-Hispanic White patients. Census tract–level overall SVI, 53 modeled continuously or in quintiles, was not associated with COVID-19 in unadjusted or adjusted 54 55 analyses. Among non-Hispanic White patients, the socioeconomic status SVI theme, the minority status 56 57 58 59 60 Journal of the American Society of Nephrology Page 2 of 34 1 2 3 and language SVI theme, and housing crowding were significantly associated with COVID-19 in 4 unadjusted analyses. 5 6 <b>Conclusions</b> Among patients on hemodialysis in New York City, there were substantial 7 racial/ethnic disparities in COVID-19 incidence not explained by neighborhood-level social vulnerability. 8 Neighborhood-level socioeconomic status, minority status and language, and housing crowding were 9 positively associated with acquiring COVID-19 among non-Hispanic Whites. Our findings suggest that 10 socially vulnerable patients on dialysis face disparate COVID-19–related exposures, requiring targeted 11 risk-mitigation strategies. 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 Journal of the American Society of Nephrology Page 3 of 34 Copyright 2021 by ASN, Published Ahead of Print on 6/3/21, Accepted/Unedited Version. 1 2 Significance Statement 3 4 Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has disproportionately affected socially disadvantaged 5 6 populations. Whether racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in COVID-19 incidence exist 7 8 in the hemodialysis population is unknown. The authors examined the association of 9 10 race/ethnicity and a validated neighborhood-level index of social vulnerability (the Social 11 Vulnerability Index) with acquiring symptomatic COVID-19 among patients receiving in-center 12 13 hemodialysis from a dialysis organization in New York City. They found substantial 14 15 racial/ethnic disparities in COVID-19 incidence; Black and Hispanic individuals on hemodialysis 16 17 were more likely than non-Hispanic White patients to acquire COVID-19. Neighborhood-level 18 socioeconomic status, minority status and language, and housing crowding were positively 19 20 associated with COVID-19 acquisition among non-Hispanic white patients but did not explain 21 22 racial/ethnic disparities. These findings indicate that targeted strategies are needed to mitigate 23 excess COVID-19 risk among socially vulnerable patients on dialysis. 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 Journal of the American Society of Nephrology Copyright 2021 by ASN, Published Ahead of Print on 6/3/21, Accepted/Unedited Version.

Introduction: The current Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is forcing unprecedented changes in daily life in the United States. During this time many patients are under “lockdown” or “shelter-in-place” orders and the nephrology community has been forced to adapt quickly to this new reality. New York City is the epicenter of the American outbreak and dialysis patients are at especially high risk of COVID-19 exposure due to widespread use of public transportation and densely packed clinical spaces. Here we report the early use and success of using telehealth visits in place of usual in person monthly comprehensive visits in an effort to provide excellent patient care while limiting the risk of patient and staff exposure to COVID-19. Telehealth has distinct advantages during this crisis for the vulnerable home dialysis population, however many practical challenges remain.
