Abstract

A growing number of skin lesions during the COVID‐19 pandemic are being recognized. Acral ischemic lesions identical to chilblains are most typical in children and young adults. We report an infant girl, aged 1 month and 29 days, with a peculiar reticulated purpuric eruption on her soles, with positive immunohistochemistry for SARS‐CoV‐2 in the endothelia of dermal blood vessels. The patient had an excellent outcome without specific therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
