All students living on campus have been placed into quarantine, said President Jane Close Conoley.

Advertisementthat the university would take as it eased back to life on campus, which has been disrupted by the pandemic like universities nationwide. Only 3% to 4% of fall-semester classes would be held on campus; the rest would be held remotely. Only 21 of the 84 buildings on the 322-acre campus would be open.

Ultimately, the safety of CSULB’s students, faculty and staff depends on the behavior of everyone who comes on campus. The school’s careful reopening plan was not immune to the risky actions of a few. “As you know, we took a conservative approach to the fall semester by vastly reducing the number of students in our residence halls and the number of classes offered on campus,” Conoley wrote Saturday. “Unfortunately, even with our proactive efforts we need to adapt and respond to this new challenge.”

That response will include testing for the virus, contact tracing, and cleaning and disinfecting facilities “as needed.”

Hmmm my nephew went to Hawaii, living in a dorm he says “ he will be expelled from college if quarantine broken🤔

Lockdown...you'd think an armed madman was loose on campus but you'd be wrong...just 5 kids with flu bug.

99.992% mortality rate under 50. Fear mongering at its finest.

keeping the fear machine alive!

Five students and none hospitalized. Let’s close the entire campus.

That's the least loathsome disease at CSLB

More to come, unfortunately. Y'all wanna keep acting like we can live normally: partying, beaching, churching, not distancing, not masking etc. Go ahead! We don't wanna hear your bitching when your loved one is tubed up in the ICU.

5? Out of what 20K?

Ri-fucking-diculous

Are they alive?

To paraphrase a doctor, the role of public health is to quarantine the high risk few to shelter them from the low risk many, not to quarantine the low risk many to shelter the high risk few. It's absurd to lock down millions of young people who are at incredibly low risk.

And 5 out of how many?

You should just lockdown the five students.
