This course was interesting to see how different countries approached containing the pandemic, and seeing the efficacy of them. The science behind the testing was also very interesting.
Reviewed on Jul 23, 2020
The course was informative with the resources and information that was available at the time the course was completed. Since our knowledge of the virus is very fluid, a few things are not up to date.

Very informative and interactive. The way the videos are designed and delivered keeps you engaged, and in the loop of what's actually happening around the globe regarding the pandemic.
