ANALYSIS: If the goal is to prevent infection, the 95 percent vaccination rate on Cornell’s campus has not accomplished that
Cornell University has aggressively pushed its students to get vaccinated, announcing a vaccine mandate for the 2021-22 academic year in April and frequently denying religious and medical exemptions.
As a result, 95 percent of the campus population, both students and faculty, is vaccinated.
Despite this, Cornell University has more than five times the amount of confirmed positive cases during its first week of this academic year than it did during its first week of the 2020-21 academic year, according to the Cornell COVID dashboard.
By the numbers, during the first week of school that ran from Aug. 27 to Sept. 2 of this academic year, Cornell reported 322 positive COVID-19 cases.
In comparison, during the first week of school last year, which ran from Sept. 3 through Sept. 9 of 2020, Cornell reported 59 positive COVID-19 cases.
That is 263 more cases, or more than five times the amount of positive cases, when comparing the first week of school.
Most students attended in-person classes in the fall of 2020 and were required to wear masks, just like this academic year. The increase in positive cases cannot be attributed to an increase in testing — in fact, more tests were administered in the first week last fall, according to the Cornell COVID dashboard.

“Despite 95% vaccination rate, Cornell today has five times more COVID cases than it did this time last year”
Typo in the Title. Here’s the Correction (based on Israel numbers):
“DUE TO 95% vaccination rate, Cornell today has five times more COVID cases than it did this time last year”
Is it possible that Testing is detecting in error?
Be sure and read the rest of the article. Cornell Senior Joseph Silverman wrote one of the best pieces that I have seen in recent days.
That vaccine will start working - any day now. Say, has Cornell looked into the miracle of Ivermectin?
Aren’t they supposed to be smart at a university?
Gee... maybe we should be focusing on therapeutics?
Nawwwwwww.... BEND THE KNEE AND GET THE JAB, PEON!
I doubt it. I think it’s going to be a very dark winter in the north. We’ve been setup.
Great, but not Ann Coulter, Bill Maher, or Keith Olbermann...
Scamdemic is being exposed. Maddow’s lie on Ivermectin is the first of many exposures coming. The evil of many Doctors and Pharma is being exposed. People are waking up.
They are making chit up now just like the Russia hoax.
I was told on FR, by FRexperts, that breakthroughs are rare...
The Testing Pandemic
Many thanks, fireman15!
Do they know what percentage of those cases needed hospitalization?
Oh, but they aren’t “really sick”. That’s what the pro vaxxers will tell you.
That needs to be further qualified. There are many FRexperts who just so happen to also be Pfizer/Moderna shareholders... Funny how that works.
That is it causes more toxic mutations.
Dr Malone and Dr Navarro was all over this on Steve Bannon War Room Pandemic No 1233 yesterday.
Navarro has a new book coming out on this

Yes, a “feature” of the PCR tests greatly appreciated by Covid statisticians all over the world is the false positive rate which has been shown frequently to be up to around 90%. After millions of people who had the flu were told that they had Covid, the CDC is now “encouraging” people being tested for Covid also be tested for the flu at the same time. They also recommended that the number of times a specimen is “oversampled” be reduced if it is known to have come from a vaccinated person.
So if anything the false positive rate for these students should be less than the number reported last year. Don't you just hate it when a carefully planned recovery from Covid doesn't goes sideways due to the expected viral mutations encouraged by “leaky vaccines”.
The same mask mandates and rules that were in place last year are in place this year, regardless of vaccination status. So masks and vaccinations do nothing...nothing...
