Clinics were reduced to emergency cases, teledermatology was implemented, only one support person was allowed to accompany patients, upon entry to the department patients had their temperatures measured as well as wearing masks and having travel histories recorded. 3 Due to the unprecedented nature of this pandemic there has been uncertainty regarding what changes should be implemented to Australian dermatology services. Given the reported efficacy of China's response in reducing COVID-19 transmission, we are employing similar protocols (Table 1) . At the Department of Dermatology, Liverpool Hospital, we have deferred non-urgent cases from surgical and medical clinics. While COVID-19's impact on the Australian health-care system and economy is uncertain, our departments and hospitals to which they belong play an important role in mitigating the burden by implementing initiatives to reduce the spread and severity of disease.
