Concerns:
During this epidemic, there may be a new injection of the existing condition in the academic arena. As it carries a variety of outcomes, a multi-faceted strategy and evidence-based method must be integrated with the curriculum at some point. My only concern is the date, and whether some of the knowledge will still be applicable in today's educational challenges.
