    This a useful educational tool for understanding exponential growth, R0, R, the effects of lockdowns, contact quarantining, vaccination, etc in relation to Covid-19. Works on a phone, but better viewed on a tablet or PC. Has interactive graphs that let you change the assumptions and see the effects. Takes about 30 minutes to go through, if you're inclined to play around with the graphs.
