Assignment Task:

Introduction & Background:

The current assignment is modified from a previous semester's essay related to a hypothetical pandemic scenario based on the Influenza A virus subtype H7N9 that broke out in China in March 2013. Previous assignments for Geography 112 and Environmental Studies/Geography 121 were based on hypotheticals. Now we are experiencing the real thing.

The Scenario:

You work for either the US Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), or a state or local public health organization. The deadly novel corona virus (Covid-19) broke out in China sometime late last year and has spread to the world, thus a pandemic. The latest outbreak is, according authorities (and my interpretation of the CDC graph) has the potential to overwhelm the healthcare systems with new cases and intensive care unit (ICU) admissions.

How might you, or your recruited team, address the current round of the outbreak? Do you let nature take its course and allow for vulnerable population subgroups deaths, mandate stricter quarantines that are in place now, prioritize all efforts to track, understand, or fast-track vaccine trials to prevent more deaths, or something else?

Develop a three-point, prioritized plan. Also, include in your discussion a policy that addresses the health directive for limiting peoples' freedom of movement and group assembly.
