Tufts shifts final exams online as a precaution; school says no recent spike in Covid-19

Tufts Daily reports the university had ordered all remaining finals be held online only - and is urging students to leave as soon as they can.

Along with the attempt to reduce interactions on campus, the university said it will join other Boston-area schools in requiring proof of booster shots for people returning to campus for the spring semester.

Tufts Daily reports that the moves are more precautionary because, unlike some other schools in the area, Tufts has not seen a recent spike in Covid-19 cases.
