[Important Information for Plattsburgh Campus Students] COVID Cases | Saturday Update

[Office of the President]

Dear Campus Community,

The college recorded 11 positive student COVID-19 cases on Saturday, all
but one from the pooled testing samples taken this past week.

All 3,018 samples from this week's pool testing have now been analyzed.
Specific pooled test results are reported to students, faculty and staff
directly only if they are part of a positive pool. Reflex testing is then
used to determine who may actually be positive. Center staff then notifies
all contacted individuals of their reflex testing results when received
from SUNY Upstate Medical.

Over the past 14 days, 45 total cases have been recorded. Based on public
health guidance, 46 students and employees are in quarantine. We respect
the privacy of those in isolation and quarantine and will support them. If
you are aware, please also respect their privacy.

Our regular, required testing is working, enabling us to aggressively
identify and isolate positive cases. We encourage you to take steps daily
to ensure the safety for you and all around you. Wear a mask, practice
social distancing, wash your hands, avoid large social gatherings, and stay
home when sick.
