Burnout and Moral Distress Among Frontline Clinicians During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has presented enormous challenges to the American health care system, and prioritizing the well-being of frontline clinicians is paramount. Even before the pandemic, nearly half of US physicians reported experiencing burnout, with pulmonologists reporting a rate of 41%.
