...[Y]ou may be interested to know that there is at least one Australia-style experiment being run at a small liberal arts college in Connecticut. For months, Australia has infamously been languishing under cartoonishly stringent lockdown protocols — brought to the attention of Americans thanks to recurring viral clips of local news anchors who appear at first glance to be auditioning for an apocalyptic parody film, but evidently are dead serious. It turns out there’s also a US-based version of this approach underway, albeit on a micro scale and thus largely evading notice. At this very moment, Connecticut College in New London (estimated total cost for the 2020-2021 academic year: $79,575) has its entire student body under mass quarantine....
So what prompted this drastic action at Connecticut College? First, to fully appreciate the lunacy being practiced here, you have to understand that Connecticut College already required vaccination at the outset of this school year. Everybody is vaccinated (or, technically, 99% of the student population is vaccinated per the Dean’s stated figures). And yet far from enabling a return to normalcy, as is supposed to be the premise behind vaccination, all that it’s done is set the stage for further extreme intrusions. That’s because the College also mandates that these near-universally vaccinated students submit to a twice-weekly testing regimen....
So this week, around 50 tests came back as positive, and a sudden shutdown was ordered. Then in a feat of shameless deflection, administrators started blaming students for the inevitable, 100% foreseeable consequences of the ridiculously overbearing “testing” policy that they chose to implement,...

There is no test for “The Delta Variant.” IMHO, it’s a massive gas light. Many believe clot-shot adverse reactions are now being attributed to “The Delta Variant.”

1,800 liberal arts students.
They probably welcome their chains.
Totally worth $320,000 in debt for a major in Anthropology or African Studies.
Three questions:
Which lab is conducting the testing?
What is the cycle threshold being used to determine positivity?
And are the tests using snot or spit?
Note to students: Get off your butts and start demanding answers. The three questions above are a good place to start.
This is like PAYING to climb into a boxcar on a train destined for Auschwitz.
Some of the students will learn a valuable, but expensive, lesson from this experience.
The others will move to Portland.
Booger test is more likely. My 3 tests have all been booger.
The phrase that needs to trend is:
#WhatAreTheVaccinesFor?
The author stated elsewhere in the article that a number of students have contacted him to complain about the policy and believe 50% of the students are against it.
That’s a start, I guess.
Hopefully, the author is coaching them well and providing advise like yours.
From his writing, he sounds like the type of guy who would.
Raw communism and even approaching despotic North Korean-style rule.
The facility a family member was at was shut down...nobody in or out for almost two weeks because of a false test for cover on ONE patient.
And that one is a little more likely to yield a positive result than spit. It can take weeks for viral debris to clear out of nasal secretions, about a day for saliva.
So if your real goal to pad the case count, not to mention make the testee uncomfortable, guess which one you’ll pick.
BTW, NYS counts asymptomatics, probables, and repeat positives of the same patient as new cases. Wonder if CT does, too...
CoupFlu has NEVER been about public health, has it....
The facility a family member was at was shut down...nobody in or out for almost two weeks because of a false test for cover on ONE patient.
Students should withdraw from that nutty college. It’ll only take a semester or two to become financially insolvent.
They should, but it sounds like a lot of them are related in spirit to the easily frightened freepers club.
There -- I fixed it for you.
Go to a hard leftist state, then pay the high priests of THAT leftist world to abuse you.
Having a hard time getting wrapped about the axle over these kids who pay communists to abuse them.
The only way I even slightly care is that the bouncing baby bolsheviks they churn out will pollute America when they all head into government jobs. Because THAT and academia is all they will be qualified to do.
Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will no longer put.
