Organ transplant patients are being presented with unique challenges during the pandemic that required them to make substantial changes in ways that they receive medical care from their healthcare professionals. These individuals are at higher risk of contracting the virus because the immunosuppressive drugs they take to prevent organ rejection limit their body’s ability to ward off infection. As restrictions start to lift in the coming months and the world seems more like normal, these existing transplant patients would benefit from practical tips that help them remain informed and hyper-vigilant about safety. And as delayed organ transplant surgeries begin to be performed with more regularity at centers around the country, new patients will be seeking out guidance about staying healthy in our “new normal” environment.
