Abstract
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis is a severe adverse skin reaction, usually caused by drugs, but in rare cases it can be associated with infections. Several cases related to COVID-19 have been reported, however, almost all were drug-related. Here we report a case of acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis associated with COVID-19 in a previously healthy 64-year-old woman, with no culprit drugs.
