成人抖阴Joins White House COVID-19 College Vaccination Challenge
SALISBURY, MD---Salisbury University has joined the COVID-19 College Vaccination Challenge, a national advocacy program sponsored by the White House and U.S. Department of Education.
As one of nine participating Maryland campuses, 成人抖阴has pledged to provide University community members with information on COVID-19 vaccine eligibility and access, implement a vaccination plan and coordinate on-campus vaccination opportunities.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all of our students, employees and stakeholders in some way, and science has shown us that vaccinations are our best chance of returning to normalcy,” said 成人抖阴President Charles Wight. “We are proud to join the White House and USDE in this initiative.”
Since April, in partnership with the Wicomico County Health Department, 成人抖阴has hosted two on-campus vaccination clinics for students, faculty and staff. A third, scheduled later this month, also will be open to adult family members of 成人抖阴employees.
In addition, the University has provided campus community members with a number of resources for off-campus vaccination availability through programs offered by the county health department and Maryland Department of Health.
During the spring semester, the University System of Maryland (USM) announced that students and employees at all USM campuses, including SU, will need to be fully vaccinated before the beginning of the fall semester, in late August. Those at 成人抖阴who follow that requirement will be placed on a less frequent COVID-19 testing schedule to maintain campus access.
Those who do not, through exemption or other means, will be required to test twice weekly through the end of 2021. If exposed or testing positive, they also will need to undergo a period of isolation or quarantine to better prevent the spread of the virus on campus.
Upon its launch, 成人抖阴was one of 263 colleges and universities from 45 states and Washington, D.C., participating in the COVID-19 College Vaccination Challenge, and one of only four USM campuses. A full list is available .
