'THE patient is the one with the disease.'
This bit of wisdom needs to be told every year to first and second-year medical students who, during their initial encounters with patients and immersed in reading about every possible illness involving every major organ system of the body, somehow manage to repeatedly contract the disease of the week during their studies.
