This article discusses renal complications after Covid-19. It has now become clear that infection with the SARS-Cov-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, is almost identical - and this tells scientists which organs are most at risk. Specifically, the respiratory tract, intestines and, most likely, the kidneys, since it is there that both proteins necessary for the virus are present. Even the Ebola virus, found in the eye fluid of ex-patient’s months after recovery, causes blindness in 40 percent of those infected later. Therefore, given that SARS-CoV-2 is more likely to damage the lungs, doctors have speculated that the virus may cause irreversible changes in the respiratory system.
