Feb. 18, 2022 – Friday COVID Update

University Community, 

Thankfully, COVID-19 case numbers in our community are beginning to drop. However, face coverings are still required in all classes, offices and other indoor settings. We are actively coordinating with CHD (local health authority), OR-OSHA, and Oregon Health Authority (OHA) as new guidance develops, and will share updates as soon as they are available. 

If you think you’ve been exposed to COVID-19, check this handy guide for a range of scenarios.

Vaccination clinic March 2 

The next on-campus vaccination clinic will be held from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m., March 2 in the Quinn Practice Gym. Vaccines are free and health professionals will be available to discuss any questions. Make an appointment at chdinc.org/mar2-eou-clinic.

Safety and health reminders

• Stay home if you have illness symptoms of any kind, and contact your supervisor. 
• Complete the Daily Self Health Check in Mountie Hub before you arrive on campus. 
• Wear a proper face covering indoors. KN95 masks are available at building entrances.

COVID-19 testing resources

1. Order free at-home tests provided by the federal government at covidtests.gov.
2. Go to your doctor’s office or urgent care. Please do not visit an emergency department/room for COVID-19 testing, unless you require emergency care for your symptoms.
3. Attend weekly testing on Tuesdays at the Union County Fairgrounds.

Students with questions should contact Student Affairs (saffairs@eou.edu) or call the COVID Hotline at 541-962-3260. Employees with questions should contact their supervisor or Human Resources (hr-group@eou.edu).

Sincerely, 

Executive Leadership Team
