I have early stage kidney failure. They are functioning at 75%. Am I at higher risk of complications if I contract covid-19?

People with mild kidney failure have a similar risk of complications from COVID-19 as the general population. However, some individuals, such as those with weakened immune systems, chronic illnesses, or older age, are at higher risk of severe complications. It is important to practice good hygiene to prevent the spread of the virus, including washing hands frequently, covering your mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing, avoiding direct contact with others, and staying away from vulnerable individuals if you are sick. For more information on hygiene measures, you can refer to resources available online.
