TOP REVIEWS FROM FIGHTING COVID-19 WITH EPIDEMIOLOGY: A JOHNS HOPKINS TEACH-OUT
by BNMay 10, 2020
Nicely presentations and easy to understand. Some times the pace was a little slow for me, but all in all did a good job of illustrating and describing the presented concepts.

Excellent course. It was very informative and highly useful to further understand the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, it provides a very good introduction about epidemiology.

The course was very good but a little dated. It would have helped if real Covid 19 data was used. How do I complete the course? I did not have a choice to "audit" or not?
by MRApr 9, 2020
The course gives detailed knowledge about the epidemics and explains how the virus can spread, how to control its spread and how to measure the rate of transmissibility.
