Colorado is still struggling to attract kids to its school COVID testing program

>Oct 18, 2021

A federally funded statewide program to test students, faculty and staff across Colorado for COVID-19 is still struggling to expand, with less than 1% of public school students being tested weekly.

 

Meanwhile, COVID-19 continues to spread in schools. As of last week, there were 199 active coronavirus outbreaks in K-12 schools linked to 3,453 cases, including 2,997 cases among students, according to data from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. A few weeks earlier, there were 156 active outbreaks with 2,150 cases.

 

There are nearly 900,000 students enrolled in public schools in the state, along with almost 56,000 teachers. That doesn’t include students and teachers in private schools, who are also eligible to sign up for the program.

 

But Gov. Jared Polis continues to express hope that the testing program, funded by $173 million from the federal government, will expand.

 

“Last week we tested about 5,000 students on a weekly cadence,” Polis told reporters Monday. “That’s up from 4,000 the week before, 3,400 the week before and 2,900 the week before that. So it’s going up.”

 

(A spokesman for the governor later clarified that those figures also include testing for school staff).

Polis also pointed out that the school COVID testing program has so far caught as many as 70 positive cases, which the governor argued meant hundreds of potential cases were prevented.

 

<The program is funded entirely by $173 million from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under the American Rescue Plan Act that Congress approved earlier this year.

 

Polis has said the state needs more buy-in from parents and schools, but some districts say they’ve had to wait weeks to hear back from the state after expressing interest in the program.

 

The state is offering financial incentives to kids who agree to weekly testing, including $25 for the first test, and $10 for each test after that.

 

Polis said Monday that the state wanted to offer more, but federal officials only agreed to the $10 payments. He argued the program would have attracted more students had the state been able to offer three, four or five times as much money to kids. He also pointed to a need to raise more awareness within districts that are offering testing.

 

“I think fundamentally, we need to get word out about the program,” Polis said Monday.

 

The state has contracts with two companies to perform the testing. One isMobile Health, based in New York City. That contract is valued at $15 million and runs through the end of November.

 

The other contractor isNovir, based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which has a contract with the state worth $12 million that also expires at the end of next month.

 

School districts that sign up to participate in the state’s program can choose from two different options: a full-service model in which one of the state contractors provides the staff, equipment and supplies needed for testing, and a direct-ship model in which the company provides the district with training and support, and ships all of the necessary equipment and testing supplies directly to schools.

 

Polis noted that there’s no “silver bullet” to address COVID-19 in schools, saying measures like mask wearing, opening windows and keeping kids home when they’re sick are also important. The most effective strategy, he emphasized, is vaccinations, which are currently only approved for children 12 years of age and up.

 

Polis said he was confident that children ages five to 11 will be able to get vaccinated against COVID-19 in the coming weeks.

Why the CCP Spent Billions to Get Students Into California Universities | Nan Su

>6,524 views | Oct 1, 2021 | California Insider

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) spent billions of dollars sending students to the University of California (UC) system to learn the best technology, says Nan Su, a senior investigative reporter for The Epoch Times.

 

And with our top UC professors going to teach in China, this could be a problem for our national security, as well as research and development in the United States, he says.

 

My guest is Nan Su, who explains the tangled web developing between California’s best universities and the Chinese military.

It starts way before the college years.

 

It's called "parachute kids" in high schools. They are sent here in California to attend high schools. They are given ridiculous amounts of money to live, literally in mansions, drive luxury cars and lots of cash. My son told me of parachute kids trying to pay for lunch with $100 bills!

 

There was a reporter who interviewed a Chinese female student decades ago who was attending Pasadena Community College and she was driving an exotic sports car like it was nothing.

 

I once did a service call at a luxury house in Arcadia that two "students" lived in. They had white carpets with jet skis on them in the living room and exotic sports cars in the garage. The kitchen was pretty much bare of any cooking utensils.

I'm an Asian. We are so near to China and know much better about how CCP thinks and acts. Pretty much all other Asians I meet in USA share this same opinion: Americans are really naive (to the degree it's almost suicidal) to trust China so much.

 

A very simple and widely taken ideology (yes, it's in the level of ideology) in China is: it's totally okay to do anything to achieve your goals.

 

For example, if the goal is not to look bad to others, it's totally okay to cover up an extremely contagious and lethal disease. If that covering up kills millions, so what? My goal is achieved (at that moment).

 

So in order to achieve the goals of: stealing technology; bullying dissidents or students from other countries; causing censorships in academic field; gaining strong influence; spreading disinformation easily; buying off academic figures, etc, it's natural for CCP to send in tons of students to UC. UC has top technology, its academy is well respected and has good influence, many Asians around, and California is relatively close to China. An excellent target.

Everyone needs to understand the danger. If you don't, get the f* out of the way. If you care about balance, what the heck are you ready for in the USA future? Take a stand. Either you don't have locks on your door and let your children be indoctrinated or you have locks/fences and you protect your children. I'm protecting my way of life.
