It’s Past Time To End The Campus Covid Craze

It’s been two years, but at the rate they’re going, none of these stupid restrictions will be removed anytime soon — they’ll only get worse.

College is supposed to be the place where folks have some of the best years of their lives. But it’s starting to look like the Covid-19 response has put a stop to that — maybe for good.

Last month, Johns Hopkins University, one of the world’s leading research institutions and a renowned name in academia, recently notified returning students its restrictions would be, not less, but more severe.

The story is similar in universities around the country. Two years into the Covid-19 outbreak, U.S. students are still forced to comply with harsh and unjustified measures aimed to “prevent” them from spreading the virus. Consumed by groupthink, our institutions of higher education have faced the pandemic in lockstep, implementing extreme measures that may well be hit-or-miss in achieving the irrational goal of eradicating Covid-19. It has to stop.

Two Years On, the Rules Are Getting Worse
Among the provisions the Johns Hopkins letter lists is a notice that cloth masks or surgical masks alone no longer fit the bill — students are now required to wear N95s, KN95s, or mask up twice with both a cloth and surgical mask.

The irony here is that it was a Johns Hopkins study that demonstrated just recently that lockdowns (a) didn't stop the spread, and (b) made a whole lot of other things much worse.

Apparently, the management at Johns Hopkins doesn't pay any attention to the science being done at Johns Hopkins - at least not if it conflicts with the administrators' preferred political narrative.
