Zika virus infection as a trigger of atopic dermatitis

The article by Cosme-Blanco et al on Zika virus infection as a trigger of atopic dermatitis is of much interest.1 In fact, virus-induced atopic dermatitis in general is a very relevant clinical issue. Some viral infections (such as hepatitis B and measles virus) have been associated with onset of atopic dermatitis.2,3 Typically, arbovirus blood infections involve leukocytes and, only rarely, skin cells. The interrelationship between arbovirus infection and atopic dermatitis has not been reported.
