In this report, SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels were prospectively investigated in urine of patients with upper or lower airway swab test PCR-verified COVID-19, admitted to a Swedish intensive care unit (ICU, n = 81). Nucleic acid was extracted from urine samples using NucliSENS® eMAG® (bioMerieux), and the amount of viral RNA was quantitated by detection of SARS-CoV-2 E and N-genes using real-time RT-PCR according to previously described protocols [5, 6] . In this cohort, SARS-CoV-2 RNA was not more frequently detected in urine of patients that died or developed acute kidney injury.	./cache/cord-290776-l6ajq6vp.txt	./txt/cord-290776-l6ajq6vp.txt
