Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by a previously unknown virus of Chinese origin, significantly changed the traditional order of life. The effect of the pandemic is particularly felt in patients with kidney disease. Treatment for such patients is known to require dialysis — however, dialysis practice is more difficult in highly contagious environments. In particular, if the procedure is usually performed by filtering the patient’s blood in an office with other patients and nurses, there is a risk of mass infection if the virus is present. To eliminate the undesirable effects of coronavirus in dialysis wards, prevention protocols are used. This includes temperature control, wearing personal protective equipment, disinfection, and isolation of coronavirus patients from healthy patients with kidney disease. An effective healthcare system is an essential criterion for maintaining national health. In particular, the overall health and mortality rates depend on how smoothly and uninterruptedly the links in the health system function. There is no doubt that all branches of modern medicine are vital to society, but while some areas are aimed at helping patients with milder diseases, others support patients with serious and critical clinical cases. In the second case, there is a significant need to create an environment in which potentially emerging external factors do not negatively impact the industry in general or medical staff and patients in particular. In fact, many generations of politicians, decision-makers, and officials have made specific arrangements to help create a highly effective healthcare system. In the context of the United States, the most significant circumstances were the introduction of Obamacare — the nationwide citizen insurance — which was President Obama’s response to the poor performance of two programs, Medicare and Medicaid, which were established back in the twentieth century. Nevertheless, it is difficult to predict how coherent the system will be or what the result of reform will be: theoretically, politicians should always take the best possible action, but in practice, the situation may be different. Ironically, exposing all existing shortcomings in the healthcare system can be a severe threat that has gone out of control. For example, pandemics often show a lack of regular clinical outreach at the municipal level, a lack of clear instructions for emergencies, and a lack of access to timely information, that is to say, counseling and care. In general, this is only a small list of problems that exist in modern medicine that can be detected when a detailed review of the current situation is undertaken. Medicine is currently experiencing serious difficulties due to pressure from a new virus. In December 2019, the first reports of a previously unknown form of coronavirus infection that mainly affected the respiratory system began to appear in a major Chinese city, Wuhan. Already in early January, the World Health Organization took over control of the situation, but even with the authority to conduct global monitoring, the organization was unable to track the movement of human flows, which led to a rapid and rapid spread of the epidemic. It is fair to say that, due to the lack of operational action and systematic observation, the World Health Organ
