[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot help but ask why so many people are rooting for ND to fail.  If they can contain this...if the illness continues to be flu-like for those affected (as data is showing...mild symptoms lasting 3-5 days)...if the staff and faculty (who are at most risk, yet the best at mitigating risk) are thus far holding strong...if this pioneering experiment is helping to teach peer colleges what and what not to do...why are we not hoping and praying this attempt proves eventually successful?[/quote]

it's a high profile school, and they appeared to have a good plan and the intent to hold all classes in person from the start.  It was ambitious!

If they are able after two-four weeks to reopen the campus, I'll say well done.  I'm not hoping for them to fail.

You need to move on from the idea that this illness is flu-like and most young adults have mild symptoms.  That really isn't the concern.  As we keep explaining, the concern in that the illness will spread to the community and hurt those at risk.

this is why I mentioned the faculty and staff and the absence of spread there thus far...is this not the real concern?  Same with elementary/secondary/high schools everywhere...it is the older population that is concern.                              [/quote]
