What should I do if I feel sick or have to quarantine?

  • If at any point you begin to feel ill, please call Employee Health [434-924-2013] immediately. If you are home, do not come on Grounds; if you are on Grounds, please return home.
  • If you have been diagnosed as infected or exposed to someone with COVID-19, please call Employee Health  [434-924-2013] . You must stay home for at least 10 days (for isolation if ill) or 14 days (quarantine if exposed), and as per University guidance found on the Return to Grounds website. Please let your department chair or immediate supervisor know that you must quarantine. If you are well, asymptomatic, or have very mild symptoms and you feel able to work, talk with your department chair about the possibility of working from home. They can give you guidance about teaching your course on-line or making alternative arrangements during your quarantine.
