Inhaltsangabe

COVID-19 is disrupting life around the world. People in every country are forced to adjust their lives and protect themselves and loved ones from this sweeping pandemic. But the concept of a pandemic is not new. No matter the outcome of this strain of coronavirus, a pandemic can always hit.

So what can you do to better understand COVID-19 and similar infections?

SKILLS TO OBSTRUCT PANDEMICS is a short but comprehensive how-to guide for people who want to protect themselves and others in current and future pandemics. These strategies can be done by everyone, and the language in STOP is easy to read without prior medical knowledge. It offers practical information and actionable daily practices to help flatten the curve. This is not a first-aid kit to treat COVID-19; it’s a zeroth-aid kit to help you avoid it.

The author team includes MDs, RNs, and PhDs with knowledge of medicine, nursing, public health and disaster medicine, and learning theory. The people who reviewed it included further MDs, nurses, a psychologist, and a nutritionist.

  • A quiz at the end of each section to help you retain information and begin healthy practices
  • Information on how COVID-19 transmits through the air
