Course Description

Following up on his highly successful webinars on COVID-19, Mark again tackles the data and statistics from leading medical journals and news sources. The result of thousands of hours of research for a forthcoming book on the pandemic, this program drills into how the virus spreads despite lockdowns, masks, and vaccines. It dispels many of the common COVID-19 myths by going to the source data from scientific journals, including the New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of the American Medical Association, The Lancet, British Medical Journal, engineering and infectious disease journals you have never heard of, as well as science reporting from the print media.

Learning Objectives:


  • Outline straight-shooting disclosures

  • Compile data sources for COVID-19 information

  • Recognize terminology of COVID-19

  • Describe forms of immunity, virus mutations, and variants

  • Evaluate aerosol transmissions

  • Determine which masks work, and which do not

  • Recall statistics, probability, and … uncertain truth
