Coronaviridae (CoV) is a large family of zoonotic viruses linked to a range of
diseases from the common cold to severe acute and Middle East respiratory
syndrome CoV epidemics. In 2019, a novel virus emerged from Wuhan, China, and
resulted in a marked worldwide outbreak of respiratory illness. Prevention and
containment became the prioritized intervention against COVID-19, coupled with a
continued search for hallmarks of the disease that would allow early detection
and provide insight into management and triage. Cutaneous findings associated
with COVID-19 include diffuse maculopapular rashes, livedo reticularis, and
acro-ischemic "COVID toes." These skin findings occurred anywhere from days
before respiratory symptom onset to weeks after recovery, and predominantly in
child and adolescent populations. The role of dermatologists can be expanded
during this COVID-19 pandemic to help identify disease through cutaneous
presentations.
