KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: COVID-19 psychosis is a potential long-term sequela of COVID-19. Vulnerable populations, such as individuals with sickle cell disease, are at high risk for psychosis. Given the limited number of cases, more investigations in the

CONCLUSIONS: Although nail changes look harmless, seeking Beau's lines during the physical examination might indicate past severe COVID-19 infection and a higher probability for reinfection and rehospitalisation.
