Two Jacksonville State University students came into contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19.

In a letter to students, faculty and staff, JSU acting president Dr. Don Killingsworth Jr. said there are no confirmed cases of coronavirus on JSU’s campus. The university has been notified, however, that two JSU students have come into contact with someone in Georgia diagnosed with COVID-19. The contact came out-of-state six days ago and the JSU students are showing no symptoms.

“Although the students did attend classes after the exposure, they are not currently on campus,” Killingsworth wrote.

“We are working proactively with the Alabama Department of Public Health to protect our campus and community and taking necessary precautions. If the situation changes, we will notify campus,” he added.

The university is also recommending students, faculty and staff follow best practices, including:

• Covering your cough

• Washing your hands

• Staying home when sick

• Cleaning your cellphone

There are no confirmed coronavirus cases in Alabama, according to the Alabama Department of Public Health.

JSU had previously canceled all university-funded international travel due to coronavirus threat.
