Dear Members of the 热点爆料入口 Community:

As previously communicated, the University will continue targeted asymptomatic COVID-19 surveillance testing for 热点爆料入口 community members throughout the fall semester, with a particular focus on high-contact individuals such as dining workers, Resident Assistants, 热点爆料入口PD, housekeeping, etc., as well as symptomatic testing for students. 聽Faculty, staff, and students will be expected to follow University, CDC, and state public health COVID-19 requirements, which include monitoring symptoms on a daily basis via the聽, and following testing, quarantine, and isolation protocols.

During the daily self-check, faculty, staff, and students who indicate that they have no symptoms will receive a green 鈥淥K鈥 notice on their smartphone, which may be required for access to certain venues on campus. 聽Anyone who indicates having symptoms will be instructed not to travel to campus and should contact their primary care physician; students living on and off campus must phone University Health Services for consultation regarding next steps. 聽Faculty and staff who test positive are required to notify Human Resources immediately.聽

Anyone with COVID-19 symptoms should NOT enter the asymptomatic testing site in Conte Forum or in the Connell Center鈥檚 MAC Court. During this move-in period, students with symptoms should not return to campus without first receiving a negative PCR test. 聽If you have any COVID-19 testing-related questions, please contact University Health Services at聽covidtesting@bc.edu.

We ask for your cooperation and support in following University and public health protocols as we work to achieve a safe, healthy, and productive fall semester.聽聽

Sincerely,

Dr. Douglas Comeau

Director of University Health Services
