[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA is about to start several other types of testing.  Randomized nasal testing will begin this week.  Each day, a random sample of students will be required to go to student services for the nasal swab test.  Also, waste water will begin being tested daily at every dorm. Finally, mass testing using saliva swabs will be done to determine the extent of any potential clusters from testing.  Seems like they have a reasonable plan.  [/quote]

It is. They have a solid testing plan. But UICU had a better one, and look where they are.  Here’s reality: testing is one part of a multilayer COVID policy (de-densifying dorms, social distancing, masks, hand washing, ventilation, etc).  And the most important piece is student behavior. All the testing in the world isn’t going to work if kids party like it’s 2019.  UVA has done its part. Now it’s up to the students to do theirs.  I know a lot of great kids there.  So I hope a that 10% of kids at off campus and Greek parties don’t ruin it for the other 90%.  [/quote]
