Face coverings, now required by Yolo County, are available in limited supply for �°������ϲ���Ļ��Ϣ Davis employees who continue to work on campus, and who do not have suitable coverings of their own.

The campus also is reminding staff, faculty and students of the reporting protocols should they or immediate family members or colleagues test positive for COVID-19. The Davis campus and �°������ϲ���Ļ��Ϣ Davis Health have different protocols.

Face coverings

The limited supply, available to departments, includes three-ply tie-on masks, three-ply elastic ear loop masks, and double-layer, tie-on masks being produced by student employees at the �°������ϲ���Ļ��Ϣ Davis Craft Center.

Departments in need of these coverings should have a single representative complete this indicating how many people they currently have working on campus as well as the total number of face coverings they will need for employees unable to provide their own.

Once a request has been reviewed and approved, the department representative will be notified that the coverings are available for pick-up at the , west of Highway 113.

The county declared last Friday (April 24) that face coverings must be worn in public settings and need not be traditional masks. “There are several options for face coverings as long as they cover the nose and mouth," officials said in a . “Face coverings can be made from a variety of cloth materials, such as bandanas, scarves, T-shirts, sweatshirts or towels."

Protecting privacy

Said Hexter: “By adhering to this protocol, you help the university protect the individual’s right to privacy and protect the community. The university will then communicate potential COVID exposure to all members of the community without compromising the privacy and confidentiality of an individual person’s diagnosis.

“To promote calm, swift and accurate community notification, we ask that you not share such information beyond the above contact points. The campus will activate its notification protocol to ensure the campus community is rapidly and accurately advised.”
