COVID-19 is spreading almost all over the world at present, which is infected by 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). It was epidemic firstly in Hubei province of China. The Chinese government has formally set COVID-19 in the statutory notification and control system for infectious diseases according to the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Treatment of Infectious Diseases. China currently is still struggling to defend COVID-19 though great achievements and progresses are being got. Burn Department is one of sections in clinics with the highest infectious risk of COVID-19. Based on our own experiences and the guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 (7th Version) with other regulations and literatures, we put forward this experience and suggestion of medical practices for burns during the outbreak of COVID-19. We hope these experiences and suggestions could benefit for our international colleagues during the pandemic of the COVID-19.
