Making Sense of the Covid-19 (SARS-CoV-2) Pandemic

Abstract
This monograph is a compilation of multiple research I made conducted during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, from March to May 2020 included. The research is on going, and has evolved through times along the diffusion of the virus, and along the new discoveries around the epidemiology of the disease and its impact. By design, this has been work- in- progress, with inevitable shortcomings, errors, but with a purpose of “80-20”, and with a view to share possibly important insights as long as the “covid 19 crisis” evolves. I am grateful to a long list of people who provided feedbacks as well encouragements along the way. I hope that some of the ideas and the fact base expressed herein have been useful to the current debate on how to control this pandemic.
