Informative lecture. But I am still chuckling to myself over 'Africans traveled to America a long time ago.'

This was a good lecture - I think Dr Tariq explained the key epidemiological issues very well.
Its a real pity that the video recording was intermittent. As these videos are viewed by students around the world, and re recording may be difficult, may I suggest that there is a standardised way in which the various lecturers make the video recoridng? At least there is a good "baseline".
Thank you again.
