This should surprise ... Well, NO ONE. Remember too that asymptomatic kids will all be returning home for Thanksgiving and infecting Grandma.

A new research study from Western University researchers says that returning students in university towns could double the number of COVID-19 infections.​

​

The study by researcher and lead author Lauren Cipriano, associate professor of management science at Ivey Business School, who is also cross-appointed to the department of epidemiology and biostatistics at Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, projects that the return of university students can lead to a doubling of infections over a single semester in mid-sized communities with previously low levels of COVID-19 activity.​

​

The new research paper, “Impact of university re-opening on total community COVID-19 burden”, said more than two-thirds of infections attributable to the return of university students occur in the general population, leading to increased COVID-19 hospitalizations and death.​
