The process of spread of disease in a population/epidemic process and its laws will be discussed in detail. The student will learn to construct an epidemic curve, evaluate epidemiological trends in disease incidence, navigate databases and ISIN reporting. Model situations of epidemic outbreaks and algorithms for their management will be presented. The aim of the course is to learn the implementation of epidemiological investigation in case of epidemic occurrences in the population and to propose anti-epidemic/preventive measures. In the second part of the course, the aim is to explain to students the importance of public health care, which includes health policy and the principles and strategies of health care management and health care in the Czech Republic.
