Notes and stuff
Some pictures of Viruses and still more pictures.
As we study the very alien existence of Viruses you may find it both educational and entertaining to play Pandemic II to better understand the nature of viral infection.
Or "you make me sick" the game.

Let's check the rate of infection as Corona has spread, and check some other stats and maps that help understand it's spread and deadliness. A current application of math and science in the form of Epidemiology.
