WMA JDN talks C-19 with CDT

Dr Yassen Tcholakov, Interim Chair of the World Medical Association Junior Doctor Network: discussed the Global impacts of COVID-19 on doctors in training with the AMACDT at its meeting on 4 July 2020.

Perhaps unsurprisingly the impacts of COVID-19 are common across countries and include increased workload, exposure to disease, changes to the type work and work settings, decreased teaching / training, and changes to life plans with many JDN members being unable to travel home while working in countries other than their home or unable to start residency / fellowship training due to border closures, licensing restrictions, etc.
