Coronavirus disease 2019 and transplantation: tackling the challenges of SARS-CoV-2 infection in waiting list candidates.

We have read with great interest the article by Polak et al. on the behalf of the European Liver and Intestine Transplant Association (ELITA) and the European Liver Transplant Registry (ELTR) recently published in your Journal [1]. The authors provided valuable information on incidence and mortality of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among liver transplant (LT) candidates and recipients in Europe. They also gave a clear picture on current practices of donor and recipient management among several European LT Centers.
