I remembered about etiology, how it's tracked and the way it can be transferred before it's considered a new disease. The origins of this virus and how dangerous it is along with my suspicions of eventually all viruses, bacteria will zoonotic and not species specific.

Thought this was a great course -- well organized, useful information. Appreciated the scenarios demonstrating concepts. Two small issues: the music that introduced each video got a bit tiresome, and the module on complexities was a bit long. But overall, great course.

As a former microbiologist as well as a former adjunct biology professor at St, John's University, I found this course to be very thorough and educational. The only observation since I am not used to taking courses on-line is the lack of an ability to submit questions.

I haven't had the chance to do contact tracing yet but it was a fantastic introduction to contact tracing. I certainly feel more confident if I do need to do contact tracing. Many thanks to Johns Hopkins, Emily Gurley and everyone involved in the making of the module.

Really informational course that helps teach people about symptoms about Covid-19 and how to prevent transmission. It's also a free course that helps those who want to know how to quarantine/isolate, how long they should, and how to help others not transmit the virus.

I feel this course is essential during this global pandemic. As cheesy as it may sound, knowledge really is power. A major key to combating Covid-19 is to educate yourself on knowing what it is, how it spreads and what to watch out for. I highly recommend this course.
