Meet Team D: "Like telemarketers, Team D works in a giant cubicle, armed with telephone headsets and questionnaires geared to specific pathogens. The team consists of six to eight students from the University of Minnesota School of Public Health. They are intensively trained and work an average of 20 hours per week with close oversight from MDH epidemiologists on more than a thousand cases each year." These plucky young students are responsible for helping to identify the culprits in the recent cookie dough outbreak. Also, the "D" stands for diarrhea!
