We know, for example, that based on federal bicycle fatality data, those killed in bicycle accidents usually aren’t wearing a helmet. This has remained consistent, with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) reporting:
2013: 63 percent of cyclists who died weren’t wearing helmets, while 17 percent were (and the rest were unknown);
2012: 64 percent of cyclists who died weren’t wearing helmets, while 17 percent were;
2011: 66 percent of cyclists who died weren’t wearing helmets, while 15 percent were.

Context is everything. Those that died, were other bike riders, or vehicles, involved? exactly.
Regardless of the season, bicyclist deaths occurred most often between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m.
Bicyclist deaths occur most often in urban areas (75%) compared to rural areas (25%) in 2017.
Bicyclist deaths were 8 times higher for males than females in 2017.
Alcohol was involved in 37% of all fatal bicyclist crashes in 2017.

Totally agree on doing what makes public health sense, not just for oneself (ala helmets) but perhaps even more morally important, also for others (don't drive recklessly).
Wear the mask, don't be a hypocrite.
Not that complicated.

evidently the cu plan was to screen test on campus students weekly, but not off campus. so probably about 1/4 of the school.ggait wrote: ↑Tue Sep 22, 2020 10:35 pmWell, it didn't take long for CU/Boulder to blow up. "For cause" testing just doesn't cut it. A week ago they quarantined the entire enrollment -- 29k undergrads -- for two weeks. Today they went full online for the next two weeks. At least they aren't sending the kids home -- yet. But after the two weeks runs, who knows.ggait wrote: ↑Sat Aug 29, 2020 12:26 pmMy kid's school is doing 1,000 tests per day.

But 1,000 tests a day (which most state Us couldn't afford) ain't gonna cut it if you have 20-30k undergrads.
No one who lives around here now will voluntarily go into the City of Boulder. Because that's where the main CU Boulder campus is. While CO and Denver metro have had pretty low Covid numbers over the summer, seems like only a matter of days/weeks until Boulder flames up with Covid. Especially since CU gets big cohorts of out of state kids from TX and CA and since 75% of the kids live in town off campus.
In contrast, my kid's school is doing fine. They test every student weekly. Since they are driving with the headlights on, the contact tracers jump on the few positives they find immediately.
https://www.dailycamera.com/cu-boulder- ... nts-weekly
not surprisingly, they now have over 100 cases per day on their dashboard. and get to do the 'ole lockdown/quarantine bit to add to all their other regulations.
would make more sense to not do any regular testing at all and save the money. unless the thesis was covid doesn't like to live off campus?

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
Agree that CU's plan was doomed to fail. Like most big state Us, they didn't require tests prior to arrival; they didn't test every kid upon arrival; and they didn't regularly test every kid following arrival. That isn't going to cut it. The real question is whether the students will start lighting up the town. I suspect folks in State College, Tuscaloosa, Ann Arbor, etc. have the same worry.evidently the cu plan was to screen test on campus students weekly, but not off campus. so probably about 1/4 of the school.

In contrast, my kid's smaller, higher resourced, private school is doing fine (at least so far) -- test every kid at home, and upon arrival, and then weekly thereafter. Their weekly positives are very low and trending lower. I wonder what the cost of that level of testing is?
The only big public state U I've heard of doing very high volume testing is Illinois. They test every student/staff person twice a week. That's a ton of tests -- 15-17k tests a day! They invented their own saliva test and do it all in house. Compare UMich (which has private-like resources). Only doing 6k saliva tests per week of asymptomatic personnel.
