Explores Covid-19 in terms of “how deadly is the disease if contracted?” and “how easily does it spread?”. Uses the case fatality rate and basic reproduction number for this purpose. Compares Covid-19 to other pandemics (and a “non-pandemic” epidemic): Black death, Spanish flu, and the seasonal flu.
Resources consist of:
i) An activity booklet to complete
ii) A clues sheet to accompany the booklet
iii) A CFR a4 activity sheet with 1000 diagnosed patients
iv) A CFR a3 poster with 1000 diagnosed patients with answers
v) An answer booklet with notes
The figures vary depending on source, etc.; the numbers have been adapted here to make them more accessible, whilst attempting to retain as much accuracy as possible. The overall comparison of diseases seems to be accurate.
