Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has spread worldwide and was classified as a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. However, its clinical manifestations and optimal management in immunosuppressed patients, including recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), are unknown. There have been some international guidelines for the management of COVID-19 in HSCT recipients. In this issue, we describe the Japanese real-world clinical condition and careful points, explaining those international guidelines.
