College students hesitant to receive a COVID-19 vaccination may need to rethink their decision. As most colleges in the U.S. inch toward the end of the spring semester, a new procedure is taking shape for their return.

More than 100 U.S. colleges and universities have said they will require all their students to get vaccinated against COVID-19 before they return to campus for the fall semester, according to a CNN tally.

Earlier this month, the tally indicated that at least 14 universities and colleges were adopting that policy. Since then, dozens of higher education institutions have jumped on the bandwagon, demonstrating the trajectory of vaccine requirements. Some schools have said they will make exemptions for medical, religious or personal reasons

Moving to another college or university should be an easy answer for many. The death of education continues unabated in this country.

My Alma Mater, University of Northern Colorado, is among them.

Unbelievable. Training the next generation to be good and submissive.

“Moving to another college or university should be an easy answer for many.”

Perhaps if you live near one of the 3 or so colleges that don’t join the herd.

And yet I just watched a short video clip of some official with the WHO say the vaccines did not stop transmission of the virus.

Mass hysteria in this and other countries continue to ensue unabated.

I’m pro-vax but it should be illegal for any institution or business to require people to be vaccinated.

Why don’t unvaccinated people who test positive for antibodies start suing for discrimination?

Waiting to see the headline:

More than 1,000,000 US donors are requiring universities not coerce students into being politically correct regarding COVID-19 vaccines, or anything else

We are not only training them to be submissive but to not understand what they read or to understand and use logic.

I think we have created a monster we cannot control. I wonder how knowledgeable our future doctors (PhDs in sciences or whatever but not psychologists or sociologists or ...any of those PhDs who do not take chemistry, physics or biology)will be. It is a scary thought.

Even now I wonder with our current group. Why don’t people understand scientists have determined masks do NO good to prevent getting the virus but do a good job of transmitting it? There are scientific papers available to help people understand.

“masks do NO good to prevent getting the virus”

Masks are not worthless.

The effectiveness of masks decreases over exposure time.

I’ve had enough exposure (200 hours+) that I have had several Covid infections, probably the original Covid, the UK variant and one other variant.

I’ve had my second shot of Moderna.

In my county, Covid vaccination is available on a walk-up basis. I got my second shot about 15 minutes after filling out the waiver form.

With my second Moderna shot, I had a little bit of initial arm nerve pain, some arm and leg pain for two days, debilitating weakness the day after the jab, and on this third day, a little bit of tenderness in the muscle in which got jabbed.

I suspect employers who require shots are quite likely to have to cough up a day of sick pay.

And you think those “side effects” are good?
I guess you CAN fool most of the people most of the time.
