      1. I think you should be asking BU because they have reported 0 hospitalizations, the current infection rate (according to BU’s reports) is exactly the same as the county (AKA not working), and Draconian has a nice Webster’s definition matching the exact BS BU is pulling. You are most welcome.

        1. This is simply false. Even at its worst—this week, because a plethora of students decided to violate BU policy and celebrate Thanksgiving at home and then return to campus—BU’s positive rate is .41% and Massachusetts’s is currently 5.5%.

          Stop denying facts and science.

          Also, draconian is spelled with a lowercase d. Perhaps you should spend a bit more time with Webster’s.

          1. I am not denying facts and science BU is-they are reporting total incidence as being the number of positives per total tests. This is a gross underestimation. The data suggests that 10 negative tests on a single person is 10 negatives rather than 1 actual negative person. This means that 0.41% is at a minimum 10 times off if a person has been tested 10 times (it should be 1 negative).

            You should really spend some time understanding how they have been fudging statistics.
