She learned basic human anatomy and physiology by co-writing a book with a biologist entitled Anatomy and Physiology for English Language Learners (2006). Elizabeth's passion for many years was helping English language students prepare for the science courses they need to take before entering nursing and other healthcare related programs. She co-designed and co-taught two pre-college level courses for English language students: Medical Terminology and Anatomy and Physiology. She learned a great deal from the biologist and medical terminologist with whom she worked. Having a keen interest in health helped her understand the scientific research as she has read about Covid nearly every day since March 2020. This book is the result of that research.
