新聞內文:
New York University is reportedly allowing senior medical students to graduate three months early so they can help overworked doctors fight the coronavirus pandemic.
The unprecedented offer was detailed in a Tuesday email to the class of 2020 as an option if the students “voluntarily agree” to begin working immediately as paid interns at NYU Langone Health’s Internal Medicine and Emergency Medicine departments.
“With the growing spread of COVID-19, our hospitals inundated with patients, and our colleagues on the front lines working extra-long hours, we are still short-staffed in emergency and internal medicine,” the reads the email circulated on social media. “Burnout of our doctors has become a growing concern.”
The email was first reported by emergency medicine physicians at Brief19.com.

心得:
美國現在蠻慘的,連基本的防護隔離衣和口罩都不夠用。
現在想讓菜鳥醫學生上在戰場降低醫院負擔,
應該只會讓醫學生當炮灰和推屍體。
還有根據紐約州長頒布的行政命令:

是讓醫學生們可以「自願」提早上戰場來抵學分,
工時上限好像也被取消了,
薪水根據小道消息是每小時$16美金,
薪水沒有其他津貼或補助。
目前Reddit醫學生和住院醫師主流風向是不建議自願。
總之希望在疫情爆掉之前台灣政府擬定與完善相關措施與獎勵,
不然台灣之後想模仿美國或義大利讓台灣醫學學生做「功德」應該會引起醫界很大的民怨。
