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

[Ken Knelly]

Dear Campus Community,

The college recorded five positive COVID-19 cases on Tuesday.

Over the past 14 days, 94 total cases have been recorded, with 52 cases
active and 42 recovered. Based on public health guidance, 67 students are
in quarantine -- 25 on-campus and 42 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.

Pooled surveillance testing continues Wednesday. Specific results from
pooled testing 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.


*All Employees Eligible for Vaccines*All SUNY Plattsburgh employees,
including student employees, are eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine.

New York has also expanded vaccine access to all people age 50 and older.
State (https://covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov/) and Clinton County (
http://www.clintonhealth.org/covid19vaccine/) web pages provide details on
appointments.

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.
