[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please tell us how many college students, professors and faculty are in the hospitals. Not 80+ year old retirement home residents.[/quote]

Right, who cares who Notre Dame ends up killing with their recklessness as long as it’s not a student or faculty.[/quote]

Well if they keep kids on campus, they aren’t exactly going to be infecting hospice and nursing home patients.  Honestly, keeping all these young people in college campuses is probably the safest place for them![/quote]

And none of the students, professors, faculty, janitors, cafeteria workers, librarians, tech support, groundskeepers etc. have or have any household contacts with people that have pre-existing conditions?  The point is that when you bring together a densely populated group that tends asymptomatic/mild, socializes a lot, they are going to generate exponential growth of cases that touch many, many other people's lives. College students living at home connect with fewer people and impact fewer people so less chance for spread.

In addition, this isn't just nursing home outbreaks. I look at the dashboard of my county of Fairfax alone and the deaths are 22 in the 18-49 age group, 63 in the 50-64, and 468 in the 65+.  So while deaths are concentrated in the older ages, they are spread out.  And the hospitalizations are even more spread across the ages, (though I have to dig around to find that data).
