Attitudes of medical students towards the COVID-19 pandemic in the sociology of medicine

The sociology of medicine is essential for shaping social attitudes in the future physician-patient relationship. The contemporary pandemic SARS‑CoV-2 coronavirus and the COVID-19 disease it causes compel research into the aspect of analysing the attitudes of future physicians who will have to treat the subsequent complications of this disease. 150 medical students from years I, III and VI participated in the survey. The results show that the awareness and attitudes adopted by the students are closely related to the increase in knowledge and are adequate for the subsequent years of study.
