ABSTRACT
Britton et al discuss how COVID-19 is changing skin from the perspective of post-acute care wound experts from across US. The US continues to face the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, with infection and fatality rates increasing, an economic crisis looming, and confronting racial inequities becoming essential. COVID-19 has created the perfect storm for skin and wound issues. Wound specialists working with the adverse effects created by COVID-19 also recognize how darker skin is and always has been at higher risk for underrecognized skin and wound impairments. Despite the global challenges presented by COVID-19, there is some light at the end of this tunnel, as human resilience and innovation bring new practices and technologies that may leave us in a better situation after the pandemic has passed.
