    During the initial phase of a pandemic, when a vaccine is not available, personal protective equipment (PPE)1 plays a major part in disease control. Dental and oral surgery procedures using drills or ultrasonic devices cause aerosol release, and routine dentistry has therefore been suspended in several countries, including the UK, to reduce virus transmission. There is an urgent need for organised emergency dental care delivered by teams provided with appropriate PPE.2 This also allows for redistribution of PPE to urgent care when there is inevitably an initial shortage and distribution challenge.

    • Recommendations from national regulatory agencies for ongoing cancer trials during the COVID-19 pandemic Bruno H R de Paula Indiara Araújo Lívia Bandeira Nathália M P B Barreto Gary J Doherty Published:April 08, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S1470-2045(20)30226-6 Clinical research has transformed cancer care and is often integrated seamlessly into routine oncology clinics, offering eligible patients additional treatment options or lines of therapy. Typically, and particularly for diseases with poor prognoses or when trials entail biomarker-directed personalised treatment, clinical trial enrolment can be preferred (by both doctors and patients) over standard care.

    • COVID-19 and medical education Hanad Ahmed Mohammed Allaf Hussein Elghazaly Published:March 23, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S1473-3099(20)30226-7 The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has rapidly transitioned into a worldwide pandemic. This development has had serious implications for public institutions and raises particular questions for medical schools. Frequent rotations between departments and hospitals make medical students potential vectors for COVID-19. Equally, as trainee doctors we stand to learn a tremendous amount and can contribute to the care of patients, particularly if the UK General Medical Council triggers article 18a of the Medical Student Act (1983).
