The COVID-19 pandemic has many people wondering about viruses. What are they? Where do they come from? Have we been through this before? How do we fight them both physiologically and medically? This course will examine viruses and their association with humans through the ages, using examples from smallpox, polio, HIV, and others, including COVID-19.
