They told Nexus that, if you’re developing symptoms associated with Covid-19, you should test yourself and inform your RL or Halls Manager of the result ASAP! This will help them be clear of what’s going on with you, and help the University keep track of what needs to be done. You should stay home or in your room if you are sick, even if the test for Covid-19 comes up negative: You don’t need to spread any heeby jeebies around, and you also don’t need to risk making your situation worse. If you do have Covid-19, you can expect to recover from your symptoms between 2-4 weeks, and any activities you were doing that were impeded by Covid-19 should be all clear within 12 weeks. It’s important to note that not everybody experiences Covid-19 the same, and although YOUR recovery may not take so long, Covid-19 can remain spreadable for up to 10 days after symptoms begin. You should practice social distancing whenever you’re in a crowded place, and spend your time away from others in clean, ventilated spaces.

You also shouldn’t share drinking receptacles, vapes, food, or utensils, but you shouldn’t really be doing that anyways. Your risk of infection increases significantly in an environment like the halls, where you are sharing a living space with several dozen people on your floor alone, so it’s important to stay vigilant and keep constant ventilation and maintain strict hygiene both in regard to your body and also the surfaces you interact with. We got through it as a country before, I’m sure we can tackle it on campus.
