This article presents the recently published data on the pathogenesis and cutaneous manifestations of the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19). The main symptoms of COVID-19 have already been well studied. However, recently, some reports on cutaneous manifestations (urticaria, papulae and vesicles, erythematous rash, purpura, livedo-angiitis, eruptive angioma, chilblain-like rash, pityriasis rosea, erythema multiforme, and periorbital dyschromia) in patients with COVID-19 have been made. Moreover, the healthcare professionals using personal protective equipment more frequently may develop occupational dermatoses.
