The Mathematics of Virus Spread For Beginners
Have terms like apex, flattening the curve, R-naught and exponential period got you down? These terms and others have inhabited the daily news since COVID-19 invaded our land. Here we present original methods for fully explaining these terms, and others. We take you deeply into the mathematical models that accurately describe virus spread, and do so in a very simplistic and understandable way. After this read, you will go away informed and enlightened about this very important matter of public health.

This work started as a precalculus project at Niagara County Community College after the State University of New York was hastily closed in mid-March. In the end, Professor Truesdell's precalculus class got a real dose of epidemiological math.
