The Association of American Medical Colleges projects a national doctor shortage of between 60,000 and 110,000.

“There’s just so many patients to see and so many hours of work to be done and not enough people to do them,” Dr. Julie Pilitsis, dean of Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University.

“People are living longer, so you can’t have less physicians if there’s more people to take care of,” Sohmer said. As that change has begun, more physicians are reporting burnout, particularly during a pandemic that put so many through more trauma than they’d ever seen.Amy Du and Zachary Kravetz are in the latter stages of medical school. Both have spent months training in hospitals.

Opinion | American teens are unwell because American society is unwellOpinion by Kate Woodsome: The systems and social media making teenagers sad, angry and afraid today were shaped in part by adults who grew up sad, angry and afraid themselves.
