Epidemiology Map Activity
• Objective: to look at avian flu surveillance data from the World Health Organization and plot the location of animal and human H5N1 cases. Also, students will plot the migratory patterns of wild birds to determine if there is a correlation between these patterns and the incidence of the disease.
• Estimated time: 1 class period
o This may vary according to class/teacher
o Part of this activity could be assigned as homework
• Materials needed (all provided in SEP ELISA Kit):
o Group sets of small world maps
o Dry-Erase markers
o Large world map

▪ Human cases-black dots
o Have each group color any country that has an animal infection in their year
o Choose one representative from each group to color the class map with their data. ADD HUMAN CASES LAST (as black dots).
o Using the migratory overlay to look at patterns & discuss with class the correlations to cases of avian flu.
o Show Rx for Survival clip on Avian Flu. (How Safe Are We?: When Avian Flu Kills) 15 minute DVD clip.
