COVID-19 Health and Safety

Updated March 19, 2024

 

The University’s COVID-19 Case and Exposure Guidance has not changed (as of 3/19/24).

We are working closely with our Local Health Jurisdiction partners to review the recent changes to public health guidance for protecting ourselves and our communities from respiratory viruses, including COVID-19. We will provide updates about changes to UW guidance as we learn more from the CDC, Washington State Department of Health, Public Health – Seattle & King County, and Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department. In the meantime, we encourage everyone to continue prioritizing their health and the health of those around them.

 

Follow the COVID-19 Public Health Flowchart if you have COVID-19 symptoms, exposure or test positive.

Please refer to the University’s COVID-19 Guidelines Summary and COVID-19 Health and Safety Plan for the most current COVID-19 prevention policies and guidance.
