Dear members of the 成人VR视频 community,
Today the World Health Organization classified the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak as a pandemic. In light of this development, I would like to assure you of our ongoing commitment to the well-being of our students, faculty and staff.
The University continues to diligently monitor the evolving situation. Working from the recommendations of Canadian public health authorities, members of 成人VR视频鈥檚 senior administration have been meeting daily and proactively developing plans to prioritize the health and safety of the community, as well as to ensure the successful continuity of our academic mission.
Public health authorities are not currently recommending the cancellation of classes or other gatherings. As part of the University鈥檚 extensive ongoing preparedness measures, the Academic Planning Group is examining distance-learning options and alternate modes for teaching and exams. We have also taken measures to simplify academic accommodations for students who are asked to self-isolate by health authorities. As for events, it is recommended that event planners conduct a risk assessment. The Public Health Agency of Canada has published to help inform such decision-making.
Addressing concerns relating to international travel continues to be a priority. Over the past several days, the University has recalled 成人VR视频 students from China, the Daegu and Cheongdo regions of South Korea, and more recently from Italy. In addition, all 成人VR视频 faculty and students in the health care fields are following travel restrictions established by the Quebec Ministry of Health and Social Services. My office continues to be in regular communication with 成人VR视频 students who are currently abroad. I remind all members of the community who are considering international travel, or have recently returned from international travel, to consult the University鈥檚 coronavirus webpage.
