Overview
Here are the top health news for the day:
Granting relief to two doctors, the Supreme Court has reinstated them to the posts of Assistant Professors in the Sher-I-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Srinagar.
While considering their plea, the Apex Court bench comprising Justice Vikram Nath, Sanjay Karol and Sandeep Mehta also clarified on the bond relating to an employer sponsoring an employee's educational advancement.
Denying relief to a group of foreign medical graduates, who were denied permanent registration due to non-completion of 2 years of internship in India, the Andhra Pradesh High Court observed that the medical profession requires practical knowledge and clinical training, and it cannot be substituted by online classes.
"The medical profession is something which requires practical knowledge and clinical training, which cannot be substituted by onlines classes. The regular medical course requires clinical skills training, dissections in laboratories to understand the human anatomy patient interaction, team based learning such as case studies and problem solving exercises," observed the HC bench comprising Justice Kiranmayee Mandava.
