        It seems like this is happening at every uni atm, so when will the gov't admit they made a mistake allowing them to open, and do something about it?

        So RT PCR test is being used to, mostly falsely, accuse somebody of being infected? Scamdemic is real, pandemic is not

        With such a large number of students testing positive, it would be so useful to know hospitalisation rate, ICU rate, CT of the PCR test utilised, and so on. Is this data available? @FatEmperor @carlheneghan
