The City of Austin, Texas, announced the news on Tuesday, saying of the 70 students who chartered the plane to Cabo San Lucas about a week and a half ago, at least 28 of them have tested positive for COVID-19.

If these students can afford to charter a plane to go on spring break the don’t need a taxpayer backed student loan or potential loan forgiveness.

i wonder if they infected each other AND the Mexicans or vice versa ... no wonder Mexico now wants to stop transborder migration as much as President Trump does ...

Sad they didn’t learn how viruses mutate and evolve into new deadly strains.

I cannot understand people who live in Texas intentionally going to Mexico for what ever reason. It should be called Cartelco.

And UT is University of Tennessee.

The school in Austin is t.u.

The only Corona virus they were concerned with was if the ice in the ice bucket full of Corona Beer was contaminated and they would get Montezuma’s revenge.

Yeah, I’m sure those 70 “students” made the arrangements to fly to Mexico. Who made the money booking the arrangements should be the first question, and what bookee booked the booker?

Interesting, I've been told right on this site that people should not social distancing since it's their constitutional right to possibly infect other people and they should take measures to protect themselves from them.....

Zero doubt many of these kids used Student loan money to pay for the flight. It isn’t really monitored according to my best buddy who’s Daughter just finished up college.
