Liberty "University" leads the way in Virginia

Liberty University has more COVID-19 cases than 4 larger Virginia campuses combined

On Wednesday, Liberty University reported 488 active COVID-19 cases on campus. According to their COVID-19 dashboard, 430 of those cases are students. It's a big increase from last week when LU reported 159 total active cases.

Liberty University also has the smallest on-campus student population compared to the four other universities.

Another difference, all four of those universities require students to get the COVID-19 vaccine and wear masks, regardless of vaccination status. Liberty University doesn't require either.
