Case Report: Infantile Bullous Pemphigoid: Triggering by COVID-19 Is Speculative

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a cutaneous disease triggered by numerous stimuli, where genetic milieu-influenced autoimmunity to hemidesmosomal proteins, namely, BP180 and/or BP230 initiate an inflammation leading to dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) enzymatic pathological remodelling. Here, to the best...
