well yes, when I said medical student, I was speaking more broadly including interns and residents.
30 hour shifts are still ridiculous and not safe. I dug around a little and it seems like the media made a big fuss over it in 2003-04 when an intern maimed a girl in a car accident, but I couldn't find if anything changed after that. I don't think it did.
