This course aims to introduce the fundamentals of virus prophylaxis, therapeutics and diagnostics. You will learn to recognise how viruses differ from other microorganisms, recognise the relevance of emerging virus infection in a local and international context and recognise the clinical and economic importance of virus infections. You will be able to define some of the current focuses on virus research (in a global context). You will also be able to critically evaluate and discuss the reporting of virus disease by others e.g. in the media.

I took virology when it was BS2015, but I guess most of the content are still the same. Content heavy mod, you’ll be fine if you’re good at memorizing, it’s important to make your own notes because the same virus family appears in different lectures and their names are quite confusing. The 1hr tutorial is actually lecture too.
