Even the nyt has reported up to 90% of positive test ‘cases’ are bogus false-positives. Much of this is a manufactured crisis exploiting elderly co-morbidity vulnerabilities and faulty ‘testing’for hysteria.
I still like the PSU dr who talked about the heart issues. Media ran with it and then it was proven totally false - not by cnn,nyt,wapo, etc.
26k 'cases' reported by colleges with nary a hospitalization. This is not rationale. Even for an election infection.
If you look at the interview with the Rutgers president, it sure doesn’t seem like he even gets why it’s a big deal. He made some comments about how he would rather err on the side of caution with the virus, etc. He even said it was a fairly easy decision for him to make. No mention at all about weighing the pros and cons, although he did mention that he knew for some other presidents they are facing pressure to play, presumably because their fans love football more than Rutgers fans.
University presidents fall into 3 categories. The president who views Athletics as their greatest advertisement for the University. The president who doesn't care either way about Athletics and just let them do their thing. The president who despise Athletics and if given the opportunity will make life hard on the athletic department.
