The pandemic put infectious diseases doctors in the spotlight. The 'Fauci Effect' raised the number of fellowship applicants in 2020, but this year almost half of the training programs went unfilled.
, an infectious diseases physician at UC Irvine, tweeted."My student debt isn't going anywhere. Don't regret my choice but don't fault anyone for not choosing it either."
Infectious diseases doctors, on the other hand, examine and interview patients and consult with colleagues –"we think for a living," Pottinger, at the University of Washington, says,"Andbecause we don't have a surgery to do, I think that's where this legacy of reduced pay has come from."," Pottinger says."There's plenty of money in it, both in academic [settings] and in private practice, and our pay is rising over time.
The current class of doctors largely started their post-graduate residencies in the summer of 2020. All of their training happened during the COVID pandemic, Bourque from Boston Medical Center notes. The long hours and poor work-life balance they observed in ID doctors – andthe field in droves due to burnout – may have cut the appeal."Long hours and low pay are a dreadful combination," del Rio says.
