Whew. I take time every day to look at our county COVID-19 numbers, because I see people around me already flaunting CDC guidelines during "reopening." Case rates here are again as bad as mid-April.

I would add to this, and dont forget that faculty represent the most inherently vulnerable population on campus by average age... if we are sick, who will teach the students who need to learn?
