The efforts shown by healthcare professionals, security personnel and the general public in fighting Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic is highly appreciable. Medical students are future healthcare professionals and have the opportunity to volunteer and help their seniors fight Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic. In Nepal, we as medical students are contributing by raising awareness about Coronavirus Disease 2019 along with some innovative initiatives which are Project Personal Protective Equipment, Project Telemedicine and the ″Donate Plasma, Help Defeat COVID-19″ Campaign. Since we were able to support thousands of frontline healthcare workers with personal protective equipment and reduce burden in hospitals by providing telemedicine service, we believe such volunteering and initiations from medical students can be an inspiration for all students for future crises.
医护人员、安全人员和广大公众在抗击 2019 年冠状病毒病方面所付出的努力是值得高度赞赏的。医学生是未来的医疗保健专业人员，他们有机会自愿帮助他们的前辈抗击 2019 年冠状病毒病。在尼泊尔，我们医学生通过提高对 2019 年冠状病毒病的认识以及开展一些创新举措来做出贡献，这些举措包括个人防护设备项目、远程医疗项目和“捐献血浆，帮助战胜 COVID-19”运动。由于我们能够用个人防护设备为数千名一线医护人员提供支持，并通过提供远程医疗服务减轻医院的负担，我们相信，医学生的这种志愿服务和倡议可以为所有学生应对未来的危机提供灵感。
