DATE: September 2, 2020

As of today, the College’s new COVID-19 dashboard is available for viewing on the Gustavus COVID-19 website. This dashboard will be updated weekly, with new information added each Tuesday morning. Every Tuesday, the COVID-19 Response Leadership Team will also send an email to students, faculty, staff, and parents with a weekly COVID-19 safety tip and the following updated information:

As of September 1, 2020
Total Positive Cases (since August 15): 2
Current Positive Student Cases: 0
Current Positive Employee Cases: 0
Students in Isolation/Quarantine: 1
Students in Isolation/Quarantine On Campus: 1
Employees in Isolation/Quarantine: 1

This data is meant to encompass the on-campus impact of COVID-19 by counting cases where a person may have been on campus while infectious. For example, students who are living at home or employees who are working remotely and not visiting campus will not be counted in these on-campus numbers.

As always, if you have any questions, please consult the College’s COVID-19 website and email g-covidresponse@gustavus.edu.
