Intro to Epidemiology: Crash Course Public Health #6

[@totough1]

I'm actually doing a master's program for epidemiology right now, and I wish that crash course Public Health was around when I was doing undergrad. This is such a great resource. I'm so happy to see crash course expanding

Human health and detective work. Honestly seems like an interesting field

To follow up on the Doll-Hill experiment, according to Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee in "Emperor of All Maladies", the reason the researchers were able to contact 60,000 British doctors was due to the British government's recent nationalisation of the health care system. They were effectively allowed to pull a centralized mailing list of nearly all the doctors, which in turn gave them a ton of data to utilize. It's another indirect benefit of socialized healthcare.

I just finished reading The Ghost Map, a book tracing the birth of epidemiology, when the 1854 Cholera outbreak hit London Soho, and how a physician named John Snow (this Snow knows something) found out the real culprit of cholera. It was a required reading from one of my public health class, honestly it was more interesting than I expected. The Ghost Map was written in a "murder mystery" method, and the fact that we already know what's killing people-Vibrio cholerae-doesn't undermine the book's thrills in extracting clues, challenging counterpoints, and convincing people. The book also demonstrates scientific methods challenge outdated myths, detailing how Dr. John Snow challenged the widespread superstition of the cause of diseases, the miasma theory. The "ghost map" John created was a visual tool that dots every case of cholera along the location of the case. This tool helped 19th century found the real suscept of the cholera pandemic by looking at where cases were most concentrated. It was the first time public health authorities in Europe used this kind of visual tool. The many COVID-19 infographic we've seen over the past 2 years are probably the epidemiological lineages of John Snow's ghost map.

[@Quanic2000]

I took a basic epidemiology course as an elective for nursing school. It should be a requirement! This video would've been so helpful before covid.

As a nerdfighter for over 10 years, and as an epidemiologist, this makes my heart happy. Love the work you guys do!

Can you guys PLEASE do a crash course art history? I love your videos and I think you would do a great job with it!

[@stephenwilkes1385]

Excellent introduction. Most people use bits and pieces of these elements, explanations, but cannot weigh relationships.
