Colleges and universities, which are supposed to be bastions of scientific reasoning, are in a race to see how anti-science they can act. An outdoor mask mandate in September 2021? Really?

They have a 1% positivity rate in a state where it is 13%.
Just sayin.
I guess the retort is wait till winter or something.

You're losing your fastball.
I'm saying they have a 1% rate in a state with a 13% rate. Y'all free to say that's nothing. They're probably looking at those numbers and not inclined to join the rest of Ohio and its 13% rate. They have students living in dorms and students coming in from all over the country. And they have a 1% rate compared to 13% in the rest of Ohio.
Blended death rate is close to useless.
1% with classes with professors, dorms with friends, sports. That's what success looks like.

that's what a real plan looks like and dozens of schools across this country have shown what plans like this can get you
i don't think oberlin is anxious to look like the rest of ohio when it comes to covid
So whats the endgame if you're concerned about almost non-existent risks?
When do these measures stop?
to be determined
there are hints of what it might be like from highly vaccinated countries like Denmark
