Interesting read.  Definitely filled with single instances and vague connections, but the statistic you quoted seems real and indicative of the problems caused by colleges resuming in-person classes.

A corollary is that when the students go home, disease & deaths will spike at the aggregation of their homes.  That won't be so easy to measure as you can't point to a limited set of counties.

Faucci was concerned about a disease that was transferred before any symptoms.  It seems one should also fear a disease where one set of the populace, esp. a mobile subset, feels invincible to the disease.

Now, consider the same principle applied to K-12 attendance.
