Coronavirus Updates and Resources
Regis University has been closely monitoring the evolving coronavirus (COVID-19) situation. The University is in close contact with local and state public health officials. Our Global Education department is in touch with students who are studying abroad.
While the current risk to the campus community is low, it is important to have up-to-date information and to be aware of available resources.
The coronavirus is an emerging disease, and there is no vaccine. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the same everyday preventive measures will help to limit exposure and spread of this respiratory disease. A reminder:
-
Stay home when you are sick.
-
Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
-
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
-
Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
-
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60 percent alcohol.
-
Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
