RIC COVID-19缓解措施

Please take note of our updated COVID-19 policies and protocols for Fall 2023.

*Subject to change per COVID-19 Community Burden Level

的 vaccine has been proven to be safe and effective in averting serious illness and hospitalizations. Rhode Island College (RIC) is requesting that all students, faculty and staff who received COVID-19 vaccinations outside of Rhode Island to enter their vaccination dates and upload their COVID-19 vaccination card in the Medicat patient portal. 

Bivalent vaccine is strongly recommended to reduce the severity of illness, 保护高危人群, decrease the strain on health care resources. RIC will strongly recommended students and non-classified employees to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19. Medical and religious exemptions are no longer required.   

RIC also recommends that all eligible students, faculty and staff consult with their primary care physician as to whether they should receive the currently available COVID-19 Bivalent vaccine.

的 健康中心 – 卫生服务 办公室提供测试.

Test kits will also be available in the dorms for self-testing.

If there is a significant surge on campus, or if RIDOH alerts us to a community surge, we will reserve the right to require non-vaccinated students to enter the testing protocol, or to institute a masking protocol, 与RIDOH协商.

*面具 will be required for all positive cases on Days 6-10 (following proper isolation).

Surgical (paper) masks and KN95 and N95’s offer the best protection against transmission. 面具 should cover both the nose and mouth and fit tightly to assure the best protection. With the highly transmissible nature of the Omicron variant, wearing face coverings in a way that produces a good fit with no air gaps is most protective. If resources are limited, double masking as described in CDC guidance is the next best option. Gaiters, scarves and cloth masks will not be permitted.
