It outlines the most common viral rashes seen in the pediatric population and reviews prodrome, transmission, and a description of the appearance of the rash. It was created by Zoe Phillips, a medical student at the University of Saskatchewan, with the help of Dr. Carly Rumley and Dr. Morgan Hewitt.
