[Ying-announcements] Fwd: [Ucrfacultyandstaff] Face Coverings While Indoors

[Sam Ying]

Hey everyone,

You probably got this forward from Dave Volz also, but in case you
didn't....

Masks indoors is mandatory, and you are still to do the daily wellness
check when you come to campus:
http://wellnesscheck.ucr.edu/

The wellnesscheck has been useful in the past because it lets me know who
is in the lab or on campus at the same time in case there is a
sudden change in cases. So even though it's annoying, it'd be great if you
could still fill it in.

Thanks everyone, and let me know if you have any questions!

Since yesterday, the CDC and CDPH issued new guidance recommending mask
wearing indoors for areas where COVID-19 transmission is high. Southern
California and Riverside County fall into this category. In response to
changing conditions, we are updating our campus requirements.



*Effective July 29, 2021, mask wearing will be required indoors while on
campus property, regardless of vaccination status. *Unvaccinated
individuals must continue to wear a mask at all times. Vaccinated
individuals who have uploaded their record to the COVID-19 Vaccine Tracking
Form <https://ucriverside.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_d4heACqMVngXcua>
may work without a mask while working outdoors or indoors alone in a closed
office or room; however, masks are required in indoor communal spaces and
meetings with others. Per Cal/OSHA requirements, employees working in
health care settings and in programs with children under 12 years of age
must also continue to wear face coverings.



All employees are required to complete the Daily Wellness Check
<http://wellnesscheck.ucr.edu/> when working on campus property.



The current uptick in cases reminds us that we are still in a fluid
situation with a dangerous disease. We encourage you to practice healthy
habits and hygiene. Campus guidelines will continue to evolve as guidance
from local, state, and national health authorities are updated.



The health and safety of our campus community remain our first priority.
Thank you for doing your part to stop the spread of COVID-19.



Stay healthy,



Kim A. Wilcox,
Chancellor
