"The field of infectious disease epidemiology has been front-and-center for the past few years. With the COVID-19 pandemic, an opportunity arose to provide "armchair epidemiologists" with a deeper understanding of the population-level impacts of infectious diseases, and the tools available to control them. This field has its own unique culture and set of tools and rules. We will utilize a whole new vocabulary in this book, from how to consider transmission-with the idea of a disease reproductive rate-to how disease is dispersed or clustered, and to how to design a study. As the reader will see, infectious disease epidemiologists seek to learn who is sick, why they are sick, and when and where they became sick"-- Provided by publisher.
