Abstract
Allergy and immunology practice during the COVID-19 pandemic represented a huge challenge to face. At the same time, this period represented a unique opportunity for us to learn several lessons. Telemedicine may play a more and more central role in managing allergic and immunological deferrable clinical needs in the future. For this reason, it seems reasonable to foster investments and technological advancements in order to expand this field. In addition, the necessity of organizing and focusing health resources made us realize the need to think out of the box regarding the prioritization of care in different clinical situations. We were obliged to get out of our comfort zone and change our perspectives, discovering new individual attitudes and coping resources. Nonetheless, it would not have been possible to deal with this difficult scenario without working together as a coordinated team, which represented the cornerstone of our experience
