Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which was discovered in China in December 2019. Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment.  Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.

This document is a guideline developed by the University Health Services COVID-19 Response Team to inform UG students on:

  1. Preventive measures to prevent spread of COVID-19
  2. How and when to get tested, and get results
  3. How positive cases are managed
  4. Additional support available for all UG students.

Due to the fact that a lot of information is being generated to understand how best to manage this pandemic globally, these guidelines will be updated according to national and global trends.
