s there evidence of in-class transmission of SARS-CoV-2 on a university campus that has mandated vaccination and masking? The answer is no.

"Going back to full-occupancy, in-person teaching at Boston University (BU) did not lead to SARS-CoV-2 transmission in-class," said corresponding author John Connor, Ph.D., associate professor of microbiology at Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM).

SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, has displayed person-to person transmission in a variety of indoor situations. This potential for robust transmission has posed significant challenges to day-to day activities of colleges and universities, where indoor learning is a focus, with concerns of transmission in the classroom setting affecting students, faculty and staff alike. Understanding whether in-class instruction without any physical distancing is fueling transmission is an important question that has not been adequately addressed.

In late Spring 2020 when it got sweaty under the masks, we tossed them here in rural MO. That Fall, the kids went back to school, no masks, no distancing.

How could we be so wreckless? Simple. We used observation. We observed that COVID didn’t seem to be the plague they described. It seemed more like a typical bad flu season with a different seasonality. For the most part, the only people dying here were old people with multiple comorbidities. The same people who likely would have died had they gotten the flu.

BU Medical School is one of the best of the world. And Boston University is a major school...with classrooms,and dorms,scattered over several square miles.

Never, EVER, give a member of the Extremist Left the benefit of the doubt.

They do not deserve it.

If there is any doubt in your mind, go with the worst-case moral outcome and assign it to the Leftist.

You will be right 99% of the time.
