Abstract
The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic has risen a number of clinical situations where the principles of the medical act, the singularity of the patient-physician relationship and the need for revitalizing the medical vocation have all become at front line. Original articles, viewpoints, and perspectives addressing these aspects have appeared in major medical journals. Never before but perhaps with AIDS in the eighties, a disease awakened such feelings of commitment in medicine. Herein, we discuss some of these very sensitive issues for physicians that emerged during the past months of global COVID-19 crisis.
