Ivy League colleges say vaccination works — but students have to mask up inside
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that COVID vaccines “can keep you from getting and spreading the virus” but that has not stopped all eight Ivy League universities from mandating indoor masking for all students. It also has not stopped the CDC from recommending masking indoors.
According to a College Fix analysis, at least 240,000 students, faculty and staff at the Ivy League colleges will be both fully-vaccinated and required to mask indoors this fall semester.
The Fix reviewed university COVID dashboards, campus papers, the most recently available demographic data and media releases to calculate how many fully-vaccinated Ivy League members would be walking around their dining hall or the school fitness center while masked.
The numbers are subject to change as vaccination increases. Some of the estimates are based on fall 2020 enrollment data, which could be lower or higher than the current number of students.
Harvard University..
Harvard requires students, faculty, and staff to be fully vaccinated against COVID. As of September 2, 93 percent of students were vaccinated and 95 percent of faculty and staff were vaccinated, based on the school’s COVID website. The university has a vaccine mandate, too.
Harvard requires mask wearing indoors, regardless of what the person’s vaccination status is.
This would put the number of vaccinated students at 20,714, while the number of vaccinated faculty and staff at 18,219. The number of students is based on enrollment from fall 2020. The numbers for faculty and staff is based on the 2020-21 school year.
Yale University..
ale requires students, faculty, and staff to be fully-vaccinated against COVID. As of September 6, 97 percent of students were vaccinated, 92 percent of faculty were vaccinated and 91 percent of staff members were vaccinated. Yale requires students to wear masks indoors, regardless of vaccination status except when a person is alone. This puts the number of students vaccinated at 11,698. The number of vaccinated faculty and staff is 14,067. Student, faculty and staff numbers are based on enrollment numbers found on the school’s website.
Princeton University..
Princeton requires students, faculty, and staff to be fully-vaccinated against COVID. As of September 6, at least 7,800 Princeton faculty and staff were considered fully-vaccinated.
The number of vaccinated students stood at over 8,000 students. Masks are required, but the school has given instructors permission to take their masks off or allow students a moment to remove their mask. Students, faculty, and staff are still required to wear masks outside, regardless of vaccination status.
Columbia University..
A September 1 letter from Columbia’s president said “nearly 99 percent of faculty and staff with campus access are already in full compliance with the mandate, as are 93 percent of students.” This would put the number of vaccinated students at about 29,253, which is based on the number of enrollment found on the school’s website from 2020. The number of vaccinated faculty and staff, based on the website’s information from 2020, would be 18,382. Columbia has both vaccine mandates and mask mandates.
Brown College..
As of September 1, students at Brown College vaccinated against COVID reached 97.4 percent and faculty staff vaccination rate has reached 95 percent. The school requires the vaccine, as well as masking, regardless of vaccination status. This puts the number of vaccinated students at 9,730 and the number of vaccinated faculty and staff would be 4,421, based on the latest available data.
Dartmouth College..
As of September 79, at least 6,900 students have been vaccinated and 3,783 faculty and staff members also received their COVID vaccine. This means 89 percent of the population has been vaccinated at Dartmouth. The school also requires the vaccine to be on campus for classes, as well as masking, regardless of vaccination status.
University of Pennsylvania..
As of August 25 in an announcement from Penn’s president, nearly 88 percent of students received their COVID vaccine, and over 90 percent of faculty and staff have received their vaccine. Masks are required indoors for all students, faculty and staff, regardless of vaccination status. Anyone unvaccinated is required to wear a mask, whether indoors or outdoors. The number of vaccinated students would be around 22,880, using the fall 2020 data available. About 18,200 faculty and staff at Penn will be wearing masks indoors while masked.
Cornell University..
As of September 8, 95 percent of all students, faculty, and staff have received their COVID vaccine (either one Johnson and Johnson shot or two Moderna or Pfzier jabs). This represents 26,072 vaccinated students and 12,253 vaccinated employees, based on the school’s COVID vaccination tracking page. Cornell also requires the vaccine for all, as well as masking.
The number of indoor, masked students, professors and other employees will only increase as more people get vaccinated.

One word for this…. INSANITY!
A twist on an Abbot and Costello routine to expose a different kind of lunacy:
Bud: ‘You can’t come in here!’
Lou: ‘Why not?’
Bud: ‘Well because you’re unvaccinated.’
Lou: ‘But I’m not sick.’
Bud: ‘It doesn’t matter.’
Lou: ‘Well, why does that guy get to go in?’
Bud: ‘Because he’s vaccinated.’
Lou: ‘But he’s sick!’
Bud: ‘It’s alright. Everyone in here is vaccinated.’
Lou: ‘Wait a minute. Are you saying everyone in there is vaccinated?’
Bud: ‘Yes.’
Lou: ‘So then why can’t I go in there if everyone is vaccinated?’
Bud: ‘Because you’ll make them sick.’
Lou: ‘How will I make them sick if I’m NOT sick and they’re vaccinated.’
Bud: ‘Because you’re unvaccinated.’
Lou: ‘But they’re vaccinated.’
Bud: ‘But they can still get sick.’
Lou: ‘So what the heck does the vaccine do?’
Bud: ‘It vaccinates.’
Lou: ‘So vaccinated people can’t spread covid?’
Bud: ‘Oh no. They can spread covid just as easily as an unvaccinated person.’
Lou: ‘I don’t even know what I’m saying anymore. Look. I’m not sick.
Bud: ‘Ok.’
Lou: ‘And the guy you let in IS sick.’
Bud: ‘That’s right.’
Lou: ‘And everybody in there can still get sick even though they’re vaccinated.’
Bud: ‘Certainly.’
Lou: ‘So why can’t I go in again?’
Bud: ‘Because you’re unvaccinated.’
Lou: ‘I’m not asking who’s vaccinated or not!’
Bud: ‘I’m just telling you how it is.’
Lou: ‘Nevermind. I’ll just put on my mask.’
Bud: ‘That’s fine.’
Lou: ‘Now I can go in?’
Bud: ‘Absolutely not?’
Lou: ‘But I have a mask!’
Bud: ‘Doesn’t matter.’
Lou: ‘I was able to come in here yesterday with a mask.’
Bud: ‘I know.’
Lou: So why can’t I come in here today with a mask? ….If you say ‘because I’m unvaccinated’ again, I’ll break your arm.’
Bud: ‘Take it easy buddy.’
Lou: ‘So the mask is no good anymore.’
Bud: ‘No, it’s still good.’
Lou: ‘But I can’t come in?’
Bud: ‘Correct.’
Lou: ‘Why not?’
Bud: ‘Because you’re unvaccinated.’
Lou: ‘But the mask prevents the germs from getting out.’
Bud: ‘Yes, but people can still catch your germs.’
Lou: ‘But they’re all vaccinated.’
Bud: ‘Yes, but they can still get sick.’
Lou: ‘But I’m not sick!!’
Bud: ‘You can still get them sick.’
Lou: ‘So then masks don’t work!’
Bud: ‘Masks work quite well.’
Lou: ‘So how in the heck can I get vaccinated people sick if I’m not sick and masks work?’
Bud: ‘Third base.’

Govt. study finds mask mandates are ineffectiveHave fun with your silly virtue-signaling, Ivies!BY SHARYL ATTKISSON, SEPTEMBER 12, 2021
A government study finds mask mandates are ineffective.
According to the analysis, mask mandates did not reduce deaths, patients hospitalized in either intensive care or regular hospital beds or ventilator use.
Mask mandates also did not reduce number of Covid-19 positive patients.
The study was conducted by scientists from the US Army Institute of Surgical Research and the Brooke Army Medical Center, JBSA Fort Sam Houston, Texas, the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, Maryland, the Madigan Army Medical Center, Joint Base Lewis McChord, Washington, the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Fort Carson, Colorado, and the 121st Field Hospital, Camp Humphreys, Republic of Korea.
There was no reduction in per-population daily mortality, hospital bed, ICU bed, or ventilator occupancy of COVID-19-positive patients attributable to the implementation of a mask-wearing mandate.
That’s the degree offered by many liberal arts colleges: Insanity ... along with Grievance Studies.
Never forget that bureaucrats are great cowards. The fear of being held to account will overrule any attempt to apply rational ideas.
bttt
They will be spreading plenty of Covid to each other as vaccine side effects, and have a nice touch of respiratory issues to add to the brew.
These numbers are gonna get interesting...
As Biden told us this week, it’s very important that we “protect the vaccinated.” (Since the vaccine doesn’t do that.)
These are our ‘best and brightest’??? ROTFLMAO! (spit)
fixed
I'll wait for the college report to come out somewhere around November's election.
And for that their parents pay out the ying yang.
Super-spreader events up coming in the Ivy League.
I like the reasoning behind this sort of comment.
Resources are scarce, so if you haven’t gotten the vaccine,
you can’t be admitted to an ICU unit.
Then who would be? Vaccinated people can’t catch it.
That’s what you told people to get them to vaccinate.
These people lie like a 12 year old. Just illogical to
the max.
Any parent can see the leaks in this reasoning.
Our brightest and best...

Over 240,000 fully-vaccinated Ivy League students and staff...????
if they shove two Preparation-H suppository up their colon would they be vaccinated against Hemorroids?
Do I detect the PURGE coming soon?
NY Health Commissioner repeals mask mandate for unvaxxed after federal lawsuit filed
LifeSite News ^ | Sep 3, 2021 | Children’s Health Defense
“The science does not establish that prolonged use of masks is safe or effective. In fact, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration defines masks as experimental medical devices, and has not licensed them for use by the general public other than through Emergency Use Authorizations (EUA).”
Under the terms of the EUA, manufacturers are expressly forbidden from “misleading” the public by alleging that masks can be reused or used to stop or reduce infection.
“It is black letter law that EUA devices, including masks, cannot be mandated,” said CHD President and General Counsel Mary Holland. “This prohibition arises out of the Nuremberg Code of 1947, and reflects our obligations under the subsequent binding treaties and domestic statutes which incorporate.”
