Abstract
The COVID-19 (coronavirus disease of 2019) pandemic started later in 2019 sending billions of people into lockdown. This health crisis brought a destructive effect to the lives of many and was a great set back to the global economy including an interruption to the educational learning process. This pandemic led to the world wide policies of implementing social distancing to prevent the spread of this contagious disease. In this letter, I would address the negative impact of the current pandemic that has surpassed badly effecting the undergraduate medical education.
With the sudden lockdown implementation, clinical rotations were suspended. Medical students were not to be involved in direct patient management during the pandemic. Clinical rotations make the strong basis of the undergraduate learning. Being a final year medical student, we spend most of our dedicated time experiencing and learning at different departments including Medicine, Surgery and Pediatrics.
