Completely Walked around free consent and justified doing so with the same "IDPH, public good, etc". Surely didn't mention using test before obtaining EUA.
It is exceptionally misleading to say that everyone provided samples through "free and voluntary consent and not as a condition of employment or attendance".
To quote correspondence I have from earlier this year: "All students, faculty and staff who are granted an exemption and have permission to be on campus must participate in weekly testing" and further in the email: "Failure to comply with all mitigations will result in disciplinary action up to and including dismissal."
Killeen contradicts himself multiple times in this letter. Itās horribly written for a president of a college. What an embarrassment. I hope these representatives donāt let this go!!!
Points #2 and #12 are a complete and total lie. There. was. NO. consent. After being sent home for two months in March of 2020 per Governor Buttercow's legally suspect EO's "essential" employees were brought back to work on campus in June 2020. We were told, that in order to be able to work on campus, we would have to submit to spit-testing three times a week. No choice, no "informed" or otherwise consent. Simple coercion under threat of disciplinary action that could result in termination of employment.
There was also NO "legal" mandate for the testing. UIUC did NOT (and STILL does not) follow state public health statutes pertaining to quarantining measures like masks, testing, quarantine/isolation, etc. To the best of my knowledge, NO employee has ever received a court order from a judge as requested by Champaign-Urbana Public Health District requiring them to test. At least I know I've never received anything like that.
If further inquiries, why contact Prof. Jay Walsh, VP of Economic Development & Innovation further? His job title surely doesn't insinuate that he has any scientific expertise, does it??? ALWAYS follow the $$$
Why hasn't Champaign-Urbana media reported on this correspondence?
Or they have, and I missed it?
