The Medical College of Georgia (MCG) responded to the COVID-19 pandemic’s challenges to medical education with a novel, comprehensive curriculum. The Pandemic Medicine Elective was an effective solution with a safe, virtual alternative to traditional clinical experiences. As the elective evolved to include pre-clinical students and service initiatives across Georgia, students and faculty navigated online platforms to execute critical community-based projects.

We describe the curriculum of the electives, the student initiatives, and lessons learned while quickly adapting curriculum during the COVID-19 pandemic.
