🧵 U Michigan Ann Arbor just announced all students living on campus Fall 23 must show proof of bivalent booster by May 15th.
Even if they’ve already gotten the original booster.
Even if they’ve already had covid.
Excuse me but…
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING @UMich?!?

We know vax and boosters don’t stop the spread.
We know students are at very low risk of severe disease or complications.
We know most students have immunity from previous infection.
We know most adults, when allowed to choose freely, ARE NOT GETTING THE BIVALENT BOOSTER.

So why force a shot on healthy students that the rest of the world barely even wants anymore?
Denmark, UK, and other countries no longer even offer vax/boosters to healthy young people.
Even in the US, thousands of colleges no longer require covid vax. Many never req’d.

:: UPDATE ⚠️ College Bivalent Mandate ::
It’s discouraging to see that this list hasn’t budged since I last posted a month ago. But I’ve updated my graphic here to show the full snapshot.
Keep fighting! College đź’‰ mandates are coercive, reckless, & completely unnecessary.

This list doesn’t include hundreds of colleges STILL requiring a single booster (which now = bivalent by default in prev unboosted students) + hundreds STILL mandating original monovalent vax. There’s no clinical evidence to support mandating these shots in college students.
A pic from @Harvard’s website. Just look at it…flimsy mask over full beard, promoting a bivalent booster mandate that won’t stop transmission but is “likely to cause a net clinical harm to young adults.”
This isn’t science-based. All for show, w/real risks. #EndCollegeMandates

Why? Well @Harvard claims it’s necessary to mandate the bivalent booster (just students, not older staff!) in order to “enable in-person learning.” That’s absurd. Thousands of other colleges across the country somehow manage to maintain full, in-person classes w/o this mandate.
Other countries no longer offer it to healthy people in this age group. A judge ruled the NYC employee mandate was unconstitutional. Even the military is ending the mandate. These nonsensical and potentially harmful mandates need to end immediately! #EndCollegeMandates @Harvard
