GEOG 80.10 COVID-19 and the Social Life of Epidemics
This course interrogates the COVID-19 pandemic, putting it in broader historical, geographic, and scientific contexts. To do so, it focuses on different disease epidemics, including the Plague, flus, cholera, and HIV/AIDS. A COVID-19 journal gives students a chance to think, reflect, and process what they are learning and their experiences together. Through this course, students will better understand science, biomedicine and other healing systems, the medical system, the United States, and global health today.
