Cornell University. 95% vax rate. Mask mandate. 5x higher infection than last year.

ITHICA, NY – According to the COVID-19 tracking dashboard for Cornell University, the school is seeing a massive increase in positive tests despite a high vaccination rate for students and faculty.

The university mandated in April that students and staff be vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to be on campus. Like many other entities, the school has denied many religious and medical exemptions.

Because of this, 95% of students and staff are said to be vaccinated with one of the COVID-19 shots.

Even so, the data shows that there are five times more people during the first week of school this year (2021-2022) with confirmed positive cases than the same time period last year (2020-2021).

This year, from August 27 to September 2, the school shows 322 confirmed positive cases. Last year’s first week of school was September 3 to September 9, and during that time they only showed 59 confirmed positive cases. That’s a difference of 263 cases despite the vaccination status of students and staff.

Hmmm. Mixing terminology in the article. A “positive test” is not a “confirmed case”. There are many false positive tests. A confirmed case is a diagnosis by a Doctor who has looked at the whole picture, including symptoms and tests.

It would be interesting to know what symptoms vaccinated people are getting. Many vaccinated people I know have had pretty miserable cases of COVID, but not requiring hospitalization.

As usual, severity of symptoms, hospitalizations and deaths are the important metrics. And it should be noted that “hospitalizations” can be misleading too. They sometimes hospitalize people out of an abundance of caution, not a true emergency.

They don't even do testing to separate the Original Covid-19 (tm) from the Delta variant.

It's a shit show, pure theater, bullshit circus for those that have been given 100's of billions, that don't know shit from fuck.

It's a $#@! show, pure theater, bull$#@! circus for those that have been given 100's of billions, that don't know $#@! from $#@!.

They have no test that will tell them which variant. The common cold will test positive for 19.

I'm pretty sure they decided "delta" existed just because the "vaccine" didn't work.

"This stuff doesn't work."

"If we report that, we won't get paid. What other semi-plausible explanation can we come up with?"

"A new mutation?"

"Yeah, that's the ticket! Drag out the Greek alphabet!"

LOL , thats because the vax isnt going to work. Masks dont work. For an institution of fancy learnin' they dont sound overly impressive to me.

Yup. Hail Israel on #4 vax now! This time they got it licked.

the first week of school

Chances are that nearly none of these people were infected at the school.

You think infection is a process that takes more than seven days? Really?

The median incubation period for SARS-CoV-2 is 4–5 days from exposure to symptom onset and ranges from 2–14 days.
