The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has necessitated modifications in clinical and educational environments. Dermatology residents' experiences during the early part of the pandemic have been described. 1 Our objective was to assess the effect of the pandemic on dermatology residents as the pandemic progressed.

After Institutional Review Board exemption (Protocol No: 20-04021753) from the Weill Cornell Medicine, an anonymous survey was emailed to resident dermatologists at our institution, as well as to dermatology residency program directors for distribution to residents.

Surveys were collected during 26 May 2020 to 1 July 2020, with 60 respondents (estimated 60% response rate).

Participant demographics are summarized in Table 1 . The majority of respondents were female (61.7%, P = .004), located in the Northeast (61.0%, P = .02), and affected by "stay-at-home" orders (83.3%, P < .001). Respondents were approximately evenly distributed from postgraduate years 2 through 4.
