What started as a pneumonia of unknown cause in Wuhan, with the first case reported to World Health Organization (WHO) on 31 December, 2019 [1], has by now taken its toll on 4.94 lac people across the globe who have lost their lives to this pandemic [2]. It has not only affected the lives of the 9.8 million people who have tested positive for the dreadful virus [2], severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, but of necessarily every living being on this planet. Health care workers are working tirelessly to treat those suffering from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and many have themselves fallen prey to it and lost their lives. Because of this current scenario, the process of readying new doctors, to be able to cope up with the ongoing situation as well as with the aftermath of the pandemic, has suffered a huge blow. Medical education, which can be learned in its true sense primarily by hands-on experience, has been lagging behind because of the risks involved.
