I took a little license with sarcasm to expose the true motives behind the baseless accusations.

If anyone had the virus without symptoms and, therefore, wasn't tested, God bless him.

Default Covid 19 Liberty University

There are over 5500 students @ Liberty University and yes there were students effected 1 tested positive along with others showing symptoms liars figure, figures don't lie.March article from the Guardian 3/30 I]Error 400 (Bad Request)!!1 was remembering all the criticism from the media talking heads two months ago concerning Liberty staying open. I checked today on how they did. They recently ended classes for the summer and had no cases of COVID 19 out of 1100 students and faculty.[/QUOTE]

I am not accusing Liberty U of carelessness. I am pointing out the fact that the message Liberty is strongly promoting is biased and likely inaccurate. You can't state there are zero COVID cases on campus unless you tested 100% of the students and staff. If this is not done, it is just an anedotal statement.

Death counts among younger populations also is not an accurate way to look at risk. The number to be concerned about is the number of positive cases of symptomatic and asymptomatic cases. The younger generation can be carriers of the virus that can spread it to others unknowingly because they probably have higher asymptomatic cases.

So in your analogy of using drunk driving as a comparison to Covid19; is drunk driving a man vs nature issue?
Good question.

Drunk driving is not a man vs nature issue. It is a man vs man because one person is making a personal decision that can have serious impact on another person's life without the innocent person choice.

With COVID, it is a man vs nature issue because no person has the ability to prevent what nature presents.

The confusion in this situation is ithat it is the actions of people that introduces the man vs man element. Since people are one of the catalysts in doing the job of the virus by being carriers, our actions introduces the risk that one person's risky action can unjustily impact another person's liberty.

It is up to society to control the level of risk. Should we quarantine and if so, to what level. Complete quarantine is not sustainable so what is the appropriate level of risk management can we apply.

So the question always comes back to who or what gives a person the right to make a decision outside the social norms of the community that exposes others to an unneccessary risk they did not choose.

Geez, that’s not only the solution for COVID-19, but also a cure for cancer!

Nope, you cannot transmit cancer.

More opinion, no facts. When you have some actual data that Liberty U got lots of people sick by staying open let us know.

Liberty University is a hoax in the world of higher education, and the title of university should be taken with just as much weight as the designation of college in the title ‘clown college’. Founded by the intolerant charlatan televangelist Jerry Falwell, thIs tax-exempt institution teaches anti-science creationism, Christian revisionism of American history, and intolerance. Liberty claims to be the biggest Christian college in the world. Obviously they are ignoring other larger Christian schools such as Notre Dame. Indoctrination is more important to them than education, as the institution barely is a real educational establishment.

Can I conclude that you choose not to believe the words of Jesus: ‘I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father but by me’! By the way his teachings also underline ‘love one another as I first loved you’!
