Abstract：
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has dramatically changed education systems as most governments around the world closed schools to prevent outbreaks on campus. Medical education was not immune from these policies, and medical students were deprived of opportunities, particularly in clinical training. To determine how countries worldwide have responded to the pandemic, we conducted a literature review of the policies and guidelines of four countries: Japan, the United States (USA), the United Kingdom (UK) and Australia, as well as case reports of faculty and medical students up to September, 2020. Although the methods of implementation were unique to each country, the concept of \"returning medical students to live education as quickly and safely as possible\" was common. However, the extent to which students and faculty members became engaged in the treatment process of COVID-19 varied. While some countries endorsed students to work as members of medical staff to treat COVID-19, other countries took measures to ensure the safety of both medical students and patients. We await further reports worldwide in order to better understand the strategies employed by different nations in preparation for future possible infection outbreaks.
摘要：
新型冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行极大地改变了教育系统，因为世界上大多数政府都关闭了学校，以防止校园爆发疫情。医学教育也不能幸免于这些政策，医学生被剥夺了机会，特别是在临床培训中。为了确定世界各国如何应对这一流行病，我们对四个国家的政策和指导方针进行了文献综述：日本，美国(美国),英国（UK）和澳大利亚，以及截至9月的教师和医学生的病例报告，2020年。尽管实施方法对每个国家都是独特的，“尽快，安全地返回医学生接受教育”的概念很普遍。然而,学生和教职员工参与COVID-19治疗过程的程度各不相同。虽然一些国家支持学生作为医务人员工作来治疗COVID-19，但其他国家采取了措施来确保医学生和患者的安全。我们等待全球范围内的进一步报告，以便更好地了解不同国家在为未来可能的感染爆发做准备时采用的策略。
