Dear JMU Family,

Update on Cases
The university observed 8 new positive cases of COVID-19 at the Health Center and during mass entry testing at the Convocation Center over the weekend, putting the total number of active cases at 38. The number of open quarantine and isolation beds is 373 out of 391. More information can be found on the university’s Stop the Spread dashboard. As the pandemic continues to surge, individuals must continue to follow public health guidance by wearing masks, maintaining physical distance and washing hands frequently.

University Health Center Hours Today
Due to the inclement weather, the Health Center will be open from 12 to 4 p.m. today for COVID-19 testing and visits only. An appointment is required. Students should call 540-568-6178.

Stop the Spread HELPline
If students and their families have questions and can’t readily find the answers in our FAQs, call the Stop the Spread HELPline, which is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The toll-free number is 888-886-3131. And don’t forget, many of your questions can be answered here. Call center agents also will be answering questions sent to covid19@jmu.edu, and you can submit questions via a form on the Stop the Spread site. Please note, the HELPline is not for reporting noncompliance with health guidance and the Stop the Spread Agreement signed by all students. Please use the LiveSafe app, which goes directly to the JMU Public Safety dispatch.
