What To Do When a COVID Case Occurs
Dear School of Medicine community,

UCI Human Resources has released guidance on what to do in the event of a COVID-19 case. Please read their important message below. It is critical that we each do our part to keep campus and each other safe during this unique school year by following safety guidelines, such as wearing a mask, and promptly reporting any COVID cases. Thank you for your attention to this matter as we navigate this ever-changing situation together.

Michael J. Stamos, MD
Dean, UCI School of Medicine
 

Dear colleagues:

As some students, faculty, other academic appointees, and staff begin returning to campus, the well-being of our UCI community is of utmost concern. Therefore, we want to ensure that everyone has clear instructions on what to do should a COVID-19 case arise.

Here is a link to a new document entitled What To Do When a COVID Case Occurs. These instructions are a printable flyer that should be posted throughout your workspace. The key message is to call the Coronavirus Response Center at x49918 (949.824.9918) for guidance on what to do when a COVID-19 case arises.

To report a case, faculty, other academic appointees, and staff should use COVID-19 Reporting Website and students should contact Student Health Center.

Additional materials and communications emphasizing the use of x49918 are forthcoming.

Sincerely,

Ramona Agrela
Associate Chancellor and Chief Human Resources Executive
