Are you testing for work? Your employer presumably has your vax status. Same for students in LAUSD or certain private schools.
That's an interesting perspective, but doesnt apply here in San Diego. The corruption here is in the public school districts, SDUSD, Poway, Sweetwater to name a few. The charter high schools in our area are comparable to the publics, but are significantly better than the schools in the areas from where the kids are choicing in from. There have been a few cases of fraud in the very small charters, but a little due diligence from the granting authorities could have avoided many of those cases.
When you’re done breaking your arm patting yourself on the back, try to figure out what omicron has done to the accuracy of hospital admission numbers.The 180 degree turn over the past month is very interesting. Polling is terrible for the dems. Now they want to change the calculus.
One of the things the Biden admin wants to do is get accurate numbers from hospitals. This idea was talked about early on and dismissed as fringe right. Today? Good idea. It was a good idea way back when.
After 2 yrs they are admitting that they have been using wrong info, and that info has been driving BAD policy. This was pointed out long ago.
A task force comprised of scientists and data specialists at the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are working with hospitals nationwide to improve Covid-19 reporting. The group is asking hospitals to report numbers of patients who go to the facility because they have Covid-19 and separate those from individuals who go in for other reasons and test positive after being admitted, the two officials said.
The administration’s goal is to get a more accurate sense of Covid-19’s impact across the country and whether the virus is causing severe disease. Senior Biden health officials have increasingly relied on hospitalization numbers, rather than case counts, to determine how to respond to the virus as well as the efficacy of the vaccines. Lower hospitalization rates could inform the administration’s thinking on public health measures such as masking. More accurate Covid-19 numbers also could provide a better picture of the strain on hospitals and which resources they might need during surges.

I like most people have moved on and realized we have to live with it.
Don’t give up. You can figure it out. I have faith in you.
There is a database of all vaccinations. There is a database of all tests run. You’re describing a merged database query on a few million records. That’s been easy for decades.
By the way this issue outdates omicron.

You are right. Takes a second or two.Again, took two seconds:
Founder, CEO Must Pay $37.5 Million in Fines, Face Prison Terms, in Charter School Fraud Case
The co-founder of a charter school network that engaged in a "systematic public corruption scheme" was sentenced Friday to four years in prison.
I'm not against school choice. I'm against how it's implemented. There is no oversight. I'm a big believer that if you want better public schools we need to pay the teachers more -- so much more that we attract people that wouldn't otherwise become teachers. That will play out in the private sector once schools start to realize they don't have any teachers to hire. This idea that the private sector can do this better is pretty crazy. I mean look at all of the people on this thread saying "Follow the money...look at big pharma"....yet somehow....we shouldn't do that with charter/private schools?

Issue? Why would it have been an issue back when cases were less than 10% of current levels?
Why was it an issue?
I agree we need better oversight of charter schools...and public schools. The fraud problem is far from unique to charter schools. We have whole public school districts including teachers unions that are rife with fraud and incompetence. (If you spent 6 seconds more looking for public school fraud you would have found far more examples than charters) Teachers pay is not the problem with our public schools, accountability is the biggest problem. Im a fan of public schools. Weve chosen public over charter for both our kids. (Our middle school feeds a public and a charter)Again, took two seconds:

Sure. Numbers were inflated and skewed. Inflated and skewed by 3% or so.
