Data on SARS-CoV-2 detection in lesional skin is controversial.1-8 We report a PCR-proven COVID-19 patient with a chilblain-like SARS-CoV-2 positive skin lesion. An 80-year-old woman presented to the emergency department at the End of March 2020. She reported an onset of fever (38.4 C°) several days before admission, along with cough and shortness of breath. RT-PCR from a nasopharyngeal swab was positive for SARS-CoV-2. An X-ray showed evidence for right-sided pneumonic infiltrates.
