Reported cutaneous manifestations of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). These skin findings have been reported by clinicians as potential signs of COVID-19. Most of these highly variable and rare findings reported in case reports and small case series may not be specific to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. We urge caution and continued scholarship moving forward to decipher what impact COVID-19 has on skin.
