Abstract

The novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the medical education platform for students in India and throughout the world. In that light, medical schools had to rapidly rearrange the dynamics of their educational curricula from the traditional platforms, to incorporate Elearning. This platform is supported in many medical specialties, allowing students various options to continue their education without interruption during the COVID-19 pandemic, and beyond. E-learning platforms are projected to grow exponentially as technology advances. These distant/ elearning aka Tele-education programs align with the recommendations and guidelines for practicing social distancing in view of new pandemic waves. Medical fraternity needs to incorporate E-learning and Telemedicine in their career for the posterity
