ABSTRACT
As the COVID-19 pandemic ravages the whole world, frontline doctors are tirelessly fighting to contain and manage the disastrous effects of the virus. However, thoracic surgeons will also become frontline doctors, because everyone around them is likely to be infected after the closed-loop management of the hospital. Stress, difficulty, fears, physical and psychological burnout and lowered morale are some side effects. We feature the perspectives of thoracic surgeons at the epicenter of the COVID-19 fight in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, which highlight the emotions, measures, motivation and belief of thoracic surgeons while they work on frontlines.
