Joined by Amandip Sidhu of Doctor’s in Distress and Dr Katie Carpenter, a newly qualified junior doctor to discuss the different stresses on mental well-being that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic can have on medical staff and why we should still be vigilant when looking out for our colleagues and indeed our own mental health. We also learn about the roles medical students are playing in helping hospitals on the front line.
