RESUMO
SARS-CoV2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2), a novel coronavirus was first reported in December of 2019 from Wuhan, China as an aetiological agent causing a new infectious respiratory disease (coronavirus disease 2019- COVID-19). The main clinical manifestations of COVID-19 are fever, cough, fatigue, dyspnoea and muscle aches. Herpes zoster is characterized by several groups of painful vesicles on an erythematous base with a distribution in a unilateral dermatome involving the skin and/or mucosa. Herpes zoster is caused by varicella zoster virus which remains dormant in the sensory root ganglion contained by the immune system particularly CD lymphocytes.
