In a letter to the campus community, Russell Furr and Rich Wittman discuss the recent cases of COVID-19 on campus and Stanford's ongoing monitoring of the COVID-19 variants and public health.
Following public health guidance by Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, Stanford now recommends that face coverings be worn in crowded indoor spaces on campus and requires their use in campus spaces that are open to the public.
A message to the Stanford community details a wide range of planning issues for the fall quarter including vaccination requirements, Health Check, testing, international student arrivals, fall instruction, face coverings and various facilities on campus.
A message to the campus community addresses changes to the process for reporting vaccination status on Health Check and other steps the university is taking to prepare for more normal times ahead.
Beginning June 28, the Stanford COVID dashboards will include data on vaccinated individuals. The totals will reflect submissions to Health Check. Because submissions are required only for those coming to campus and voluntary for any others, the totals will be somewhat lower than the total number of vaccinated individuals in the Stanford community.
A message to the campus community addresses upcoming changes to safety protocols for face coverings, social distancing and density, as well changes to Health Check.
