The physician and patient come into close contact during botulinum toxin treatments, increasing the chances of COVID-19 infection. Therefore, it is essential to use an effective injection method that can prevent infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus. In order to minimize the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission during botulinum toxin treatment in the COVID-19 era, the Italian Botulinum Toxin Network study group of the Italian Society of Neurology has prepared a video of best practice recommendations on how to organize the work of a clinic performing botulinum toxin treatments.
