Usually, at least I’m the US, they usually have responsibilities in hospitals or nursing homes for experience depending on age and credentials for experience

2020-03-17 22:09:37 UTC  

But a year ahead of schedule they are giving the title of doctor

2020-03-17 22:09:41 UTC  

I imagine they're going to be treated more like nurses than doctors. It's helpful to have more people that know medical equipment to assist doctors now.

2020-03-17 22:09:43 UTC  

Without exam

2020-03-17 22:09:49 UTC  

Yes, it is "assistant doctor" degree

2020-03-17 22:10:09 UTC  

You can actually get one at mere 6 months if you specialised early

2020-03-17 22:10:26 UTC  

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea either, it’s just adding more variables which can go wrong

2020-03-17 22:10:28 UTC  

And you get to be one if you fail at some later exam too

2020-03-17 22:10:56 UTC  

You do what you gotta do

2020-03-17 22:11:12 UTC  

Honestly they need manpower

2020-03-17 22:11:20 UTC  

I.e. if you fail to become a heart surgeon, you can still become a general practitioner or an assistant doc at cardiology dept

2020-03-17 22:11:27 UTC  

And as the more elderly staff are at risk you can imagine the damage it can cause

2020-03-17 22:11:36 UTC  

If Italy has debt to china every country should support them to just wash it away

2020-03-17 22:11:46 UTC  

Like damn

2020-03-17 22:11:48 UTC  

Being a doctor takes time, remember <:slurpgon:583424900732157956>

2020-03-17 22:11:59 UTC  

Trial by fire

2020-03-17 22:11:59 UTC  

I find it fair, since 4 years of primary for a medic would be a waste of time to just flunk out at nil

2020-03-17 22:12:04 UTC  

Well, the Italians are still properly managing their dead (pictures of rows of caskets in churches). So, at least it's not chuck-bodies-in-mass-graves level.

2020-03-17 22:12:13 UTC  

Yeah

2020-03-17 22:12:17 UTC  

Doctors tend to be older so I wouldn’t be surprised but skeptical since credentials

2020-03-17 22:12:41 UTC  

Italy needs hands, and even barely knowledgeable ones will do now

2020-03-17 22:12:47 UTC  

It's like conscription

2020-03-17 22:12:51 UTC  

But for doctors

2020-03-17 22:12:53 UTC  

yeah

2020-03-17 22:13:07 UTC

Did you know the guy who made music for Red Alert has a band?

2020-03-17 22:13:30 UTC  

the general care and specific CORONA care will not vary that much, they will learn that "in the field"

2020-03-17 22:13:50 UTC  

the rest they can learn later if they want to specialise in something else

2020-03-17 22:14:09 UTC  

Also apparently a year ago Italy was buddying up to china

2020-03-17 22:14:20 UTC  

Bet they regret that

2020-03-17 22:14:24 UTC  

Frankly italy should ready medical medals, because it won't have money to reward the brave docs

2020-03-17 22:14:51 UTC  

@Gustavus Adolphus Yes, belt-and-road. Sold a port to them

2020-03-17 22:14:52 UTC  

Nothing apparently about it. Italy wants in with Belt and Road.

2020-03-17 22:15:01 UTC  

Rip

2020-03-17 22:15:06 UTC  

Italy sold a port to china

2020-03-17 22:15:12 UTC  

If Italy’s going back to letting anyone be a doctor, are we gonna see the rise of plague doctors again<:slurpgon:583424900732157956>

2020-03-17 22:15:29 UTC  

It is technically italian, but if you walk in there you will only hear chinese workers talking

2020-03-17 22:15:39 UTC  

I do hope there will be radical decoupling of the world from China after this.

2020-03-17 22:16:06 UTC  

I do too

2020-03-17 22:16:08 UTC  

I think chinas trying to make power plays

2020-03-17 22:16:35 UTC  

It's hard to respond right now when everyone is dealing with domestic crises.

2020-03-17 22:16:48 UTC  

I would power play back. Just ignore the debt 😎
