旅游:国内大学旅游、国际大学旅游、个人旅游

Among the many concerns COVID-19 has produced is travel. For domestic university-sponsored business travel, we strongly recommend reducing all non-essential travel. Please note you can find recent places where COVID-19 has been identified online. 此外,即使旅行可能是出于国内商业目的,活动也可以 attract large numbers of international travelers. Please be cautious, therefore, in making travel choices.

For international university-sponsored travel, whether it is for business or personal reasons请注意,此时强烈建议减少所有国际旅行 because of COVID-19. There are already a number of countries that are banned from travel by the CSU system. We will ensure that everyone is kept up-to-date on those places. 

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has also mandated that if you travel to an area 由于COVID-19在社区广泛或持续传播,您将被要求留下来 home for 14 days. 

For domestic or international personal travel在决定运输方式时,你们必须考虑周全 and where you are going. With spring break 在地平线上,考虑一下你可能计划去哪里旅行,是否在 U.S. or abroad. Not only is it important to keep yourself and your family safe, but 作为斯巴达大家庭的一员,我们有与生俱来的责任去参与 确保每个人都有机会来到一个安全的校园的做法.

Preventative Self-Care and Hygiene

To protect yourself, the CDC recommends the following:

  • 经常用肥皂和水洗手至少20秒,或者使用含酒精的洗手液 rub if soap and water are not available.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
  • Avoid close contact with sick people.
  • 生病时呆在家里,咳嗽或打喷嚏时用纸巾捂住,然后扔掉 the tissue in the trash.

由于现在仍然是流感季节,疾病预防控制中心还建议人们接种流感疫苗 to help prevent the spread of germs and diseases.

目前正在努力对尽可能多的公共场所进行消毒,包括 classrooms, keyboards, mouse, monitors, etc. to minimize spread of COVID-19 as well as other diseases, such as the flu. This is, of course, difficult to do given the size, breadth, and scope of this cleaning effort. To assist with sanitizing efforts, 请考虑定期擦拭表面、电话、智能手机设备和 computer keyboards in your work and study spaces with disinfectant.

重申,我们都被鼓励通过洗手来最大限度地减少COVID-19的传播, 打喷嚏或咳嗽时遮盖身体,或者在最坏的情况下进行自我隔离 and testing should you suspect you have been exposed. 

Potential Exposure to COVID-19

如果你认为你可能接触过病毒,需要自我隔离,请 contact the following people immediately:

如果你出现与COVID-19相关和/或类似的轻微症状,你应该留下来 回家并通知/咨询您的医疗保健提供者和/或公共卫生官员.
