Infectious Disease: Historical Epidemics, Current Dilemmas, and Emerging Problems
Have you ever wondered what happened during the Black Death? What’s really going on with HIV these days? Why do I get the cold and the flu every year? Why shouldn’t I drink the water in Otter Creek? Where did Ebola and Zika virus come from, and why now? In this course we will cover a broad array of topics past, present, and emerging in medical infectious disease. We will explore classification, epidemiology, pathogenesis, microbiology, immunology, and the social context of infectious diseases, from the perspective of the physician. This course counts as an elective towards the Global Health minor.
