COVID-19 Active Cases 29

The University of Evansville is committed to data transparency by reporting the number of positive COVID-19 cases among students and employees on campus. In an effort to keep the UE community informed about the presence of COVID-19, the University will report the number of active positive COVID-19 cases on campus through the above dashboard. The COVID-19 dashboard will be updated three times each week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday by noon each day. This reporting will help inform continued decision-making related to campus operations. These real-time updates will allow the University to protect the privacy of students and employees while simultaneously observing and sharing campus health trends.

Contact Tracing

Additional information will be provided through contact tracing to individuals who have had direct contact with the COVID-19 positive individual(s) (explained by the CDC as less than 6 feet for 15 minutes or more with or without face coverings worn by either or both individuals).

Privacy

To respect the privacy of our students and employees and to follow federal privacy law, the University will not release specific information about individuals who have tested positive. We ask that we always treat each other with dignity and respect, but also be patient and understanding with each other during these difficult times.

We will update the case count as follows:
