I'm sorry that I can't quite make out all the information and how it's presented but this isn't comparing the data from Sept 2020 with data from Sept 2021 right?
Because that TRULY doesn't seem like an apt comparison.
Or is it comparing a 0% vaccination at Itheca in 2021 with a 96% vaccination at Cornell
It was Sept 2020 vs. Sept 2021 at Cornell. They were in person both scenarios. The social distancing and masking rules were the same in both scenarios. There was (marginally) more testing done in 2020 vs. 2021.
Cornell is plowing ahead with in-person classes, tuition increase, contrary to other Ivy League schools

What has changed:
1) Delta being prevalent strain instead of alpha.
2) Population (students and faculty) 96% vaccinated instead of 0% vaccinated.
Case rate up over 500% in 2021 with delta and 96% vaccination rate.
What about the comparison "TRULY" doesn't seem apt?
