Updated CDC COVID-19 & Upper Respiratory Illness Guidelines

As we head into Flu, COVID-19, & RSV Season, here are some updated guidelines from the CDC. These are the guidelines that Health and Wellness Services refer students to in the event of a positive Flu, Covid-19, or RSV test. No notes or excuses will be provided for the absence of class. 

If you get sick, these are the two steps the CDC recommends following. 

"Step 1: Stay At Home

The CDC recommends staying home until your symptoms are getting better AND you have not had a fever for 24 hours without the use of medication. 

Step 2: Resume Normal Activities and use added prevention strategies over the next five days

This includes wearing a mask, social distancing, and practicing good hygiene. Seek medical attention as needed. This lowers the risk of spreading respiratory viruses to others."  (CDC's Updated Respiratory Virus Guidance: What to Do When You Are Sick | NCIRD | CDC)

Health and Wellness Services is available by appointment to see and evaluate students for upper respiratory illnesses. Please call (607)587-4200 to schedule an appointment
