Sam Jones, emergency management team chair and Ginger Ambler, vice president for student affairs sent the following email to the campus community Jan. 25, 2020 - Ed.
Dear William & Mary community –
Given the media attention surrounding the spread of the 2019n-CoV virus, we wanted to provide you with the following information.
Information related to 2019-nCoV, its symptoms or how it can spread is available on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website. On that website the CDC says that while they consider the virus a “serious public health threat,” they see the immediate health risk to the general American public as low based on current information. The university has no reports of the virus on campus and we are aware of no cases in Virginia. The university continues to monitor this situation and is ready with its infectious disease protocol when warranted.
If you traveled in areas now impacted by the virus over the recent winter break and have any concerns about your health, please contact the Health Center at 757.221.4386.
The CDC issued a “Warning – Level 3” travel alert – the agency’s highest – for Wuhan, China on January 23 advising travelers to avoid all nonessential travel there. The agency has indicated an expansion of the travel warning could come as early as next week.
Anyone planning to travel to China in coming weeks should contact Steve Hanson, vice provost for international affairs and director of the Reves Center for International Studies, if you have concerns related to university-affiliated travel. He may reached at sehanson@wm.edu. The Reves Center monitors travel alerts and advisories closely. State Department and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention resources are available from their website.
We will continue to update you as the situation warrants.
Sam Jones, emergency management team chair
Ginger Ambler, vice president for student affairs
