Abstract

COVID-19 is a disease that mainly concerns the specialties of infectious and chest diseases. However, there was such a big epidemic all over the world that the experts of these specialties could not bear the patient burden. Many countries ,including Turkey, across the world, physicians of all specialties as well as preclinical doctors (residents) have taken care of patients in the COVID-19 outpatient and inpatient clinics. Dermatologists,too, started working as frontline physicians during the pandemic.
