In the midst of an increase of more than 200 COVID-19 cases among students, including two cases of the highly contagious U.K. variant, UC Berkeley has deployed campus police to help enforce the campus’ mandatory self-sequester for freshmen living in campus housing to combat the surge.
Many students condemn the campus response, citing the negative mental health consequences living alone in a residence hall intended for sharing. Others, however, claim that the campus isn’t doing enough, going so far as to allege that the disorganization and isolation protocols implemented by University Health Services, or UHS, inadvertently contributed to the spread.
