ABSTRACT
Sr. Editor: El Programa Conjunto de las Naciones Unidas sobre el VIH/Sida (ONUSIDA) propuso como meta que los países alcancen para el año 2030 el 95-95-95, es decir que un 95% de personas viviendo con VIH (PVV) estén diagnosticadas y de éstas que el 95% reciban tratamiento antirretroviral (TAR) y al menos el 95% tengan carga viral indetectable o supresión viral.
Mr Editor: The Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) proposed as a goal that the countries reach 95-95-95 by the year 2030, in other words, that 95% of people living with HIV (PLH) are diagnosed and of these that 95% receive antiretroviral treatment (ART) and at least 95% have undetectable viral load or viral suppression.
ABSTRACT
The current pandemic SARS-CoV-2 has required an unusual allocation of resources that can negatively impact chronically ill patients and high-complexity procedures. Across the European Reference Network on Pediatric Transplantation (ERN TransplantChild), we conducted a survey to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on pediatric transplant activity and healthcare practices in both solid organ transplantation (SOT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The replies of 30 professionals from 18 centers in Europe were collected. Twelve of 18 centers (67%) showed a reduction in their usual transplant activity. Additionally, outpatient visits have been modified and restricted to selected ones, and the use of telemedicine tools has increased. Additionally, a total of 14 COVID-19 pediatric transplanted patients were identified at the time of the survey, including eight transplant recipients and six candidates for transplantation. Only two moderate-severe cases were reported, both in HSCT setting. These survey results demonstrate the limitations in healthcare resources for pediatric transplantation patients during early stages of this pandemic. COVID-19 disease is a major worldwide challenge for the field of pediatric transplantation, where there will be a need for systematic data collection, encouraging regular discussions to address the long-term consequences for pediatric transplantation candidates, recipients, and their families.
