The medical community in the past months has seen a flourishing of information related to the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus responsible for the COVID‐19 pandemic. From the early days of the pandemic, the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus has been linked to multiple different types of skin involvement. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to report on a case of familial clustering of a maculopapular COVID‐19 rash. Eight persons presented COVID‐19 symptoms, six were confirmed via SAR‐CoV‐2 chemoluminescent immunoassays, and the four related by blood presented skin manifestations. Although, it has not been fully established if the SARS‐CoV‐2 can in fact cause viral exanthems, our observations regarding the familial clustering and the temporal evolution seen in this family seem to present strong evidence of a viral exanthema related to SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
