Due to non-compliance with the campus mask policy the reading room is closed for the rest of the year. Plans are in place to close other areas if necessary for the safety of library patrons and staff.
Thank you, BYU 🙏
@tiamammamia_ The periodical section of the library is now closed to studying as a result of noncompliance with the mask mandate.
2/ In an effort to rapidly implement large-scale COVID-19 screening testing for students on campus, BYU has adopted the following plan for the remainder of the fall semester: First, BYU will begin student COVID-19 screening tests November 18 through November 21.
BYU’s weekly COVID cases are rising: This past week we had 275 additional cases. 2 weeks ago it was 171. Utah’s ICU beds are filling up. Take this seriously.
We LOVE to see it. The HBLL is now closing down areas where students don’t wear masks
Thank you to all the students wearing masks. Most of you are really helping. I've found a few places where people think they don't need a mask. From now on I'll be closing areas for the day where people aren't following the university policy.
5/ Additionally, in-person events (not classes) for this semester are now canceled until the event is re-approved through the established approval process or changed to remote delivery. This applies to Elder Quentin L. Cook's devotional on Tues, which will be delivered remotely.
4/ BYU will comply with every part of the executive order, including the required testing of students who are living on campus or attending at least one in-person class. More information on the testing process at BYU will be communicated in the near future.
BYU students: you need to wear masks when studying in the library ✨AND✨ when walking in crowds on campus. Been seeing a lot more students without masks, and it’s a real problem.
BYU COVID update: Campus saw another increase in reported cases last week. 218 between 10/30-11/05 31.1 daily average
Looks like cases at BYU might continue to rise after Halloween weekend. This past week, new COVID cases at BYU increased for the first time in 4 weeks. (173 cases between 10/23-10/29)
Controversial college event planner Young/Dumb promotes three Utah parties (St. George, Hyde Park & Orem) the same day 2,292 COVID cases were reported, shattering old record. Screen recording from their Instagram story. @fox13
Was on a call, but here’s the belated Thursday Covid update: 🌡 1,837 new cases, 110,640 total 😔 10 new deaths, 598 total 🏥 317 currently hospitalized, up 18 from yesterday 🧪 11,232 people tested, 16.4% positive rate 7-day avg: 1,578 cases/day, 18.1% positive rate. #utpol
@UtahDepOfHealth We’ve finally accomplished this … EVERY are of Utah is now in “Very High” rate of cases for the last two weeks (this goes down to the neighborhood level in populated areas). Right now one in every 116 Utahns has an active Covid case. #utpol
@BYU this is my husband’s MMBIO 240 class. The professor gave a heartfelt message talking about overflowing ICUs and pleading with students to take COVID seriously, reminding them that it is not political. This was the response. Enter to learn, go forth to serve, right?
Seen on the BYU subreddit: Roommate doesn’t want to quarantine. Unfortunately, this doesn’t seem to be an uncommon experience.
BYU requires all students and employees to have a green COVID-19 passport on Utah’s Healthy Together app to come to campus. Yet, students say a lack of enforcement renders it mostly ineffective. unvr.se/34kz1Yd #Covid_19 #Students #BYU
Here’s your Wednesday Covid update: 🌡 1,007 new cases, 80,446 total 💀 8 new deaths, 496 total 🏥 226 currently hospitalized, 55 new 🧪 5,839 people tested, 17.2% positive rate 7-day avg: 1,044 cases, 13.8% positive rate #utpol
1/ Update on BYU's COVID-19 case count from Branden Wilson, Managing Director, BYU Risk Management & Safety: Two weeks ago, Pres. Kevin J Worthen and UVU Pres. Astrid S. Tuminez sent a joint letter to students asking for a change in behavior to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
