These are the pearls from Sir William Osler, who has been one of the greatest advocator of bedside teaching. Though,more than a century has elapsed since he practised, but his quote is still valid and an eye opener for the medical teachers.1,2The coronavirus disease, also known as COVID-19, emerged as an epidemic in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and has rapidly progressed to engulf the whole world and has taken a shape of a pandemic. This pandemic has not only hit the health care system worldwide but also has created a social, economic and a political disaster.3Educational system has suffered worldwide with schools, colleges and universities being closed. But the system has adopted and reinvented distance education, e-learning and smart classrooms.4 Application of same in medical education is far from reality as Sir William Osler says “Medicine is learned by the bedside and not in the classroom.” William Osler was a Professor at Johns Hopkins Hospital and was the pioneer in starting the residency program and was the first to bring out medical students from the medical lecture halls for bedside clinical teaching.
