Being at the forefront of the pandemic, doctors are exposed to the risk of infection, long working hours, psychological distress, fatigue, occupational burnout and stigma. With the advent of the second wave of Covid-19 in India, once again, doctors prepare themselves to fight the battle against the unprecedented health crisis. The current study aims to assess burnout (Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, Personal Accomplishment) and vaccination rates in doctors during the onset of second wave of Covid-19 in India. A convenience sample of 200 Government and Private Hospital doctors (23 to 63 years), who had sought full, single or no dose of Covid -19 vaccine(s) was taken. A single administration of Maslach Burnout Inventory–Human Services Survey was carried out. Data was examined using descriptive and correlational analysis. Age correlated significantly with all three components of burnout. Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were conducted to assess the difference in burnout rates w.r.t hospital type and number of vaccine doses sought by the participants. Significant differences were found between Personal Accomplishment of Government and Private hospital doctors. Implications and suggestions for future research have been discussed.Metrics
