PsoProtect is an international registry for clinicians to report outcomes of COVID-19 in individuals with psoriasis. The registry seeks to improve our understanding of how factors such as immunomodulator therapies and comorbidities impact outcomes to COVID-19 in psoriasis. This information will inform clinicians when assessing risk and treating COVID-19 in patients with psoriasis.
Monkeypox is a rare viral disease that can be particularly concerning for individuals with psoriasis due to their weakened immune systems. These resources aim to help those with psoriasis better understand the risks associated with monkeypox, including information on symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options. We encourage individuals with psoriasis to explore these resources and consult a healthcare professional for personalized guidance on managing their condition.
