REYNA-FIGUEROA, Jesús et al. Opportunities in the teaching of medical specialties, regarding influenza and COVID-19. Gac. Méd. Méx [online]. 2020, vol.156, n.4, pp.317-323.  Epub 27-Maio-2021. ISSN 2696-1288.  https://doi.org/10.24875/gmm.m20000402.

Medical specialties’ teaching is an area of health systems that deserves special consideration in light of the lessons learned from influenza and COVID-19; educational programs and implementation of the training strategies that are used must be reevaluated, since the level of training of most specialty students does not allow to consider them as personnel who can face these global problems. The number of specialization courses has exponentially grown, and their main threat is the cancellation or partial execution of their academic programs as a consequence of not implementing functional operational strategies during a contingency.
