Abstract
Challenges in establishing telehealth care during the COVID-19 pandemic in a neglected HTLV-1-infected population in northeastern Brazil.
Highlights
Patients who were being regularly followed at CHTLV and who had previously scheduled appointments were contacted by telephone to ascertain their interest in telehealth consultations
2 patients informed team members that they had tested positive for COVID-19 by molecular diagnosis; these individuals are being followed closely to evaluate any associated impacts
Despite the difficulties imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, it was possible to implement telehealth consultations as a way to follow patients regularly seen at CHTLV
