Background: Depression is among the most frequent reasons for sick leave, whereas health authorities recommend a rather strict practice, arguing that work is health-promoting. We aimed to explore GPs' attitudes and practices regarding sick leave certification for depressed patients.

Objectives: To explore and compare physicians' reported moral distress in 2004 and 2021 and identify factors that could be related to these responses.
Design: Longitudinal survey.
Setting: Data were gathered from the Norwegian Physician Panel Study, a representative sample of Norwegian physicians, conducted in 2004 and 2021.

Article Synopsis
- Doctors during the COVID-19 pandemic had to adapt to new priority settings for patient treatment, facing challenges in adhering to guidelines.
- A study involving 2,316 doctors in Norway revealed that 70% responded; many were familiar with priority criteria but not the related legislation, and most did not follow the guidelines in the early pandemic phase.
- The findings indicate that a significant portion of doctors felt it was medically indefensible to deprioritize patients, highlighting tension between imposed regulations and medical ethics.
