Final year students had already been working in hospitals since before the outbreak, with 35.0% of them assisting doctors in the treatment of COVID-19 positive patients during their placements. The final year students were asked about the changing workload since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, contact to COVID-19 positive patients, possible infection, and the impact on future residencies. To evaluate the usefulness and gratitude of the voluntary work during COVID-19 pandemic, the 17 volunteering students were confronted with several statements that were answered using a 5-Point Likert Scale (Figure 1) . In addition, volunteers' work was appreciated and valued more by the medical staff in comparison to final year students conducting their clinical placements (p<0.01).	./cache/cord-271308-nypkr537.txt	./txt/cord-271308-nypkr537.txt
