That doesn't change the fact it's unnecessary.

variants are going to keep spinning up in shithole countries perpetually

only way you're "beating" covid is by closing the borders

no one wants to talk about what "beating covid" even looks like so they keep us all spinning in circles with these arbitrary rules and sheep are just "could have been worse guys" lol

My kid doesn't want or NEED the vaccine. She is healthy and already had the fricking Virus. Guess she will have to get her nose swabbed once a month...which is dumb.

we have to show proof of vaccination for the other 30 we have gotten.

Not true. I was vaccinated with the common ones we get as kids and couldn't get the records in time for class. I just signed a paper that said I didn't have the vaccines and would be excluded from campus in the case of outbreaks. So far, this has not been brought up again. I could be walking around with everything else, no problem.

I'm saying something that makes sense


Weekly testing of asymptomatic young people makes zero sense. Not testing vaccinated people when it seems pretty clear that vaccinated can still transmit the virus does not make sense. There is no logical consistency with this policy.

Yeh there is nothing logical in the thought process that asymptomatic vaccinated spread is less than asymptomatic unvaxxed spread

they changed the definition of "sickness" on us all last year

so now even if you're not showing symptoms of illness, youre still a potential risk to others.

I never said it was more or less

But if we're gonna be testing asymptomatic people just because, why would we not make sure we catch all of the possible spreaders?

Monthly was the concession but you can be sure that if an outbreak occurs, they’ll be more frequent

no requirement of vaccinations


I wonder if there is a demographic breakdown showing what percentage of LSU’s student base is vaccinated?

The only use is to make people think they are safer, to appease the chicken littles who are afraid of their own shadow so the rest of us can go about our lives. Just like masks. These are all emotional decisions being made, and not based on logic.

Look for this to change to all students being tested monthly in the near future.

So vaccinated who can still spread the virus don't have to get tested? And if they are wearing a mask why would anyone have to get tested?
