#CORONAVIRUS UPDATE 17/3: A UNSW student has tested positive for COVID-19.
They attended a 3-hour EDST6922 class from 5-8pm on Monday 9 March at Matthews 308 (Kensington), exhibiting mild symptoms while on campus & became unwell that evening. They did not attend campus today.
Students who attended the class have been contacted & advised to self-isolate for 14 days. We’re working with @NSWHealth to identify anyone else who was in contact with the student.
Please continue to be vigilant around the symptoms of COVID-19.
UNSW continues to operate & @NSWHealth has not advised us to shut the campus at this time. We are minimising F2F contact in study & work environments through online classes & remote working arrangements. These measures are being put in place at least until the Easter break.
Like other organisations, plans are in place to increase our response, inc. partial or full closure of the campus, if instructed by government & health officials. Full details of today’s update in your email. FAQs & more at https://covid-19.unsw.edu.au or our hotline on 02 9385 8500.

Where else this student has been in the campus? Cafe, chemist, bookshop? Have those people been contacted?
