“…Similar findings have been found in other reports during this pandemic [2][3][4]. The majority of the patients we presented had upper respiratory tract symptoms, and viral transmission within the family was likely accomplished via inoculation of the upper airways, but seeing as these patients have been living in close-quarters, we cannot ignore the possibility of other potential routes of transmission such as through the digestive tract, sexual contact, or through contact with viral particles present on sebum-rich skin 8,9. The question raised by our findings regards the extent to which genetics plays a role in the manifestation of viral exanthems, as out of the eight people in this family who contracted the SARS-CoV-2 virus, only the four which were all blood-related presented dermatological manifestations.…”

The medical community in the past months has seen a flourishing of information related to the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus responsible for the COVID‐19 pandemic. From the early days of the pandemic, the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus has been linked to multiple different types of skin involvement. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to report on a case of familial clustering of a maculopapular COVID‐19 rash. 8 persons presented COVID‐19 symptoms, 6 were confirmed via SAR‐CoV‐2 chemoluminescent immunoassays, and the 4 related by blood presented skin manifestations. While it has not been fully established if the SARS‐CoV‐2 can in fact cause viral exanthems, our observations regarding the familial clustering and the temporal evolution seen in this family seem to present strong evidence of a viral exanthema related to SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

“…2 There is evidence of viral RNA found in both seminal fluid and in the gastrointestinal tract, so close sexual contact with SARS-CoV-2 infected patients may potentially lead to transmission. 3 Certain risk factors like contact with areas of high sebum production or concomitant infection with Demodex folliculorum may increase this risk. 4,5 Familial clustering of COVID-19 rashes have been described in patients sharing close-quarters.…”

SARS-CoV-2 has recently been associated with the reactivation of varicella zoster virus in patients. This is potentially an observation of a local susceptibility of the skin in areas of vesicle formation. This article explores the dermatologic manifestations that have been linked to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, their infectious risk, as well as potential confounding factors. An isotopic response may be occurring due to the occurrence of an immunocompromised district incited by sustained inflammation mediated by inflammatory cytokines.

“…17 But the route of SARS-CoV -2 (COVID-19) transmission such as through skin-skin contact, vectors and sexual activity is still under study. 27,28 In conclusion, COVID-19 induced skin changes are one of the manifestations of immune responses to the novel coronavirus. Clinical and pathological characteristics are identified as dermal inflammatory reactions and/or skin vascular injury.…”
