Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Our study has several limitations. First, our sample was not uniformly distributed to all medical figures involved in COVID-19 epidemic, being intensive care doctors and primary care physicians likely underrepresented. Moreover, the results have to be interpreted with caution due to the small sample size. Finally, our findings about the impact of social media on clinical practice are based upon the personal perspective of the respondents.
