Students graduating from medical colleges have to learn lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic, and dedicate themselves to serving the poor and the needy humanely, advises Sowmya Swaminathan, Chief Scientist at the World Health Organization (WHO), Geneva.
“The COVID pandemic has thrown a tough challenge to the medical fraternity and scientific community worldwide, and, at the same time, prompted us to concentrate more on research and development,” Dr. Sowmya Swaminathan said while addressing the outgoing medical graduates and post-graduates at the 11th convocation of Sri Venkateswara Institute of Medical Sciences (SVIMS) University in Tirupati on Saturday.
