- The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly affected medical education and training experiences for interns and resident doctors. As medical schools shifted their teaching curriculum to virtual platforms, most senior medical students lacked sufficient clinical exposure as they missed out on in-hospital rotations before beginning their intern year. In this article, we share our experience in transitioning from medical school to our intern year while working in COVID and non-COVID facilities. We discuss our challenges while learning basic skills in a resource-limited setting during a period of high patient mortality because of COVID-19 and Mucormycosis.
