尽管疾病控制与预防中心最近改变了针对普通公众的隔离和隔离指南，但由于聚集生活，我们必须遵守邦库姆县卫生官员此前制定的指南。

Our guidelines for students and employees are as follows:

If you’re NOT vaccinated you must quarantine or isolate when:

• You receive a confirmed, positive COVID-19 laboratory diagnosis when tested for your own symptoms or exposure. You must be isolated for 10 days.
• You exhibit COVID-19 symptoms, you must quarantine until you receive a negative PCR and are asymptomatic
• You are designated a close contact, you must quarantine until you receive a negative PCR.

However, you should get tested 3-5 days after your exposure, even if they don’t have symptoms and wear a mask indoors in public for 10 days following exposure or until their test result is negative.

CONTACT TRACING GENERALLY WORKS AS FOLLOWS:

• Contact tracing will continue as has been practiced since the beginning of the pandemic.
• If an individual develops symptoms and is awaiting a COVID-19 test, receives a positive COVID-19 test result, or is identified as a close contact by contact tracers, then the employee stays home or the student goes to quarantine at the College’s off-site location at Blue Ridge Assembly or other offsite location until released. They cannot remain on campus.
• 当发现COVID-19检测结果呈阳性时，将立即为该病例分配接触者追踪器。接触者追踪人员将对个人进行面谈，并识别所有接触者。密切接触者具体定义如下:密切接触者被输入数据库，并通过电话和/或电子邮件通知。如何进行的信息会传达给每一个密切接触的人。
• 接触者追踪器将向Buncombe县公共卫生部门传递任何非wwc密切接触者的信息。
• Please note that during this process the name of the primary will be disclosed to possible contacts, but protected health information will not be disclosed.
• 根据沃伦·威尔逊学葡萄牙韩国足球断交院的协议和CDC的指导，“密切接触者”被定义为从发病前2天(或无症状者，在阳性检测收集前2天)到被隔离的24小时内，与感染者的6英尺内累计15分钟或以上的任何个人。
• 作为亲密接触，不要打电话给其他朋友或同学。一旦你的测试结果得到确认，接触追踪人员将通知任何其他需要的学生。Do not jump ahead thinking you are helping by telling your friends of your need to quarantine.

What is Quarantine?

You should quarantine when you might have been exposed to the virus by a close contact and may or may not have been infected. Quarantine means staying in a specific designated location (i.e., your home or room in provided housing at Blue Ridge Assembly or your off campus designated space) away from others, for the purpose of observing and monitoring your health status for the potential development of symptoms. When you are in quarantine you cannot attend school or work in person or leave quarantine to run errands or hang out with your friends. Quarantine is also critical to prevent the spread of COVID-19 to others in our community.

What is Isolation?

当你生病或被病毒感染时，即使你没有症状，你也要隔离自己。COVID-19检测呈阳性的人必须保持隔离。这意味着你必须远离其他人，包括你家里的人，以帮助防止传播。不要共用个人家用物品，比如杯子、毛巾和餐具。

In that certification, the college agreed to appropriately spend the $388,269, representative of the 50% student allocation received under Section 18004 (a)(1) of the CARES Act, to provide emergency grants to our students. In addition, the college must certify that they have continued to pay all eligible employees and contractors during the period of disruptions or closures to the greatest extent practicable. We have also complied with this stipulation to the greatest extent practicable.

What Kinds of Expenses are these CARES Act HEERF Student Grants to cover?

Examples of expenses related to the disruption of campus operations due to the impact of the coronavirus are food, housing, course materials, technology needs, health care, or childcare.
