COVID-19 Numbers Increasing – With the start of the new academic year at BUSM, we have seen a recent increase in COVID-19 cases within our program. We are reaching out in an abundance of caution to ask that our community please remain vigilant. Until the number of cases drop, mask use in the classrooms and small group discussions is very strongly advised, as well as common areas around the school. In addition, wear a mask in crowded places and around others who may be at risk for severe disease, practice hand hygiene, and adhere to all other BU health and safety guidelines. Please monitor carefully for symptoms of COVID-19 and do a home test or schedule an additional test if any symptoms develop. If you test positive, please review isolation guidance on the SHS website. Faculty and staff should visit Occupational Health.
