[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too early to tell.  The majority of kids are following safety procedures and there are several online classes.  There are clusters from two large parties held off campus but there are also kids who didn’t attend said parties who tested positive (6 out of 8 kids in a house positive, for example).  All along they said positives were to be expected, and if you add in an estimated 10% false negative from the pre-arrival tests, this is unsurprising.  Asymptomatic folks are always a concern but people who do the right thing — mask up and distancing — lessen the risk.

There is a lot of unnecessary drama and angst among some parents who are spinning up their kids.  There are also kids wanting tests who have zero symptoms.  Surveillance testing began this week:

How the next 3-4 weeks unfold will determine how they proceed, I’m guessing.  I hope they give it another six weeks.  A lot of first years seem to be struggling with the limitations in the residence halls, but it’s early days.[/quote]
