4. Apply epidemiologic thinking to real-world health events.



Lesson Outline

1. Introduction (10 minutes)
• Brief introduction to epidemiology.
• Why epidemiology matters for global health, policy, and prevention.
• Real-world example: the role of epidemiology during the **COVID-19 pandemic.

Discussion Question:
Why do you think some diseases spread faster than others?



2. Core Concepts (20 minutes)

Key Terms
• Incidence – number of new cases in a population during a time period
• Prevalence – total number of cases in a population
• Risk factor – characteristic that increases disease likelihood
• Outbreak – sudden increase in disease cases

Example Activity

Students analyze a simple dataset:

Population: 10,000 people
New flu cases this month: 200

Question:
What is the incidence rate?



3. Case Study (20 minutes)

Case study: Foodborne illness outbreak investigation.

1. Identify cases
2. Trace exposure sources
3. Test hypotheses
4. Implement prevention measures

Example historical case:
The 1854 Broad Street cholera outbreak investigation by John Snow.

Students examine a map of cases and identify the likely source.



4. Interactive Exercise (5–10 minutes)

Students answer:
• What might cause an outbreak in a university dormitory?
• What interventions could stop it?

Examples:
• vaccination
• quarantine
• improved sanitation



5. Wrap-Up (5 minutes)
