Summary:Medicine has always been about evolving scientific knowledge, constantly changing across disciplines as well as over time. When clinicians were alerted on the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in late December 2019, everyone knew that the world was heading towards an avalanche of change, but no one could foresee how vast and deep the impacts were going to be.
