As a new immigrant in US for just 3 months and as a previous health worker in my country, I like taking this course. It was a little bit hard for me due to my english comprehension and speaking which are not good yet. But I strove for it!
Thanks for providing this course to the public!

This time it is my first time taking a course in public health, especially during this pandemic, it is very important to understand the basics of what is learned in this short course. Not expecting so many trivial things that apparently can determine success and safety for someone else.

A great course that taught me about COVID-19 from a public health perspective, and I appreciate the public policies that the governments put in to stop the spreading of the virus much more than before. Hopefully, one day I will be able to utilize the skills that I learnt in this course.

This course was very informative, extremely helpful in providing scenarios and utilized many opportunities to repeat information to set into memory. Some of the questions were a little tricky in the way they were presented, but I know that will happen in real time as well. Thank you.

The course was very informative and reiterated much of what I already knew. It also educated me on many things I did not know about the virus and clarified steps on contact tracing. Although I liked the narrator's voice, at times it seemed as if she were purposely stretching her words.

The course was very educational and informative, I learned many new details and specifics about the COVID-19 Pandemic throughout this course. I gained insight into the transmission, infectious period, and incubation period, which will assist me in containing the virus in my community.

The course was great, very straight forward, and accessible.
The only issues I had were all on the app. The note feature crashed the app a handful of times and some prompts never appeared in the app. The most important being the identity confirmation prompt to complete your certificate.
