I guess people don't seem to realize that a college-aged student's chance of even getting minor symptoms, let alone dying from C-19, are practically non-existent. When H1N1 was raging in 2009/2010 the Obama administration stopped all testing in the summer of 2009 because "well, it's already out there, no use in testing all those people anymore." and everyone was fine with that. And most of these tests aren't even accurately diagnosing actual C-19 infections, instead they test for a particular type of antibody protein that can be caused by pretty much every other coronavirus like the common cold. The inventor of one of these tests has repeatedly said that his test shouldn't be used the way they have been using it for this very reason.

The flu is more dangerous to young people than C-19 is, by a lot actually. And no-one suggests we test the hell out of students for the flu every year. Common sense has pretty much fled the arena.
