[Important Information for Plattsburgh Campus Students] COVID Case Update | New Vaccine Eligibility for All Employees

[Office of the President]

Dear Campus Community,

The college recorded six new student positive COVID-19 cases on Wednesday.

Over the past 14 days, 82 total cases have been recorded, with 45 cases
active and 37 recovered. Based on public health guidance, 52 students and
employees are in quarantine -- 18 on-campus and 34 off-campus.

We respect the privacy of those in isolation and quarantine and will
support them. If you are aware, please also respect their privacy.

*All Employees Eligible for Vaccines Next Week*
Beginning next Wednesday, March 17, all New York public employees will be
eligible to receive COVID-19 vaccines. This includes all employees at SUNY
Plattsburgh, including student employees, that are not already eligible.

Follow state directions and requirements when making appointments beginning
next week.

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.

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. More information is
online at *plattsburgh.edu/COVID-19* <http://plattsburgh.edu/COVID-19>.

Dr. Alexander Enyedi
President
