Any type of kidney or liver problem increases your risk for having serious complications due to COVID-19.
Some of these aliments that I just listed may seem a no brainer that they increase your risk of contracting COVID-19 but I see over and over again that people may know this but fail to see themselves truly at risk for COVID-19.
I am not sure, but people fail to see their true risk and are thus not careful— they do not wear a mask and they fail to practice social distancing.
