COVID- 19 REPORTING
UM will no longer be collecting or reporting data on COVID cases on campus. Individuals had been asked to report if they tested positive, but were not required to do so. As a result, the numbers are not a complete and accurate representation of actual COVID cases on campus.
If you receive a positive test result for COVID-19, you must follow all directives from Manitoba Public Health and do not travel to the university until it is safe to do so.
UM does not require you to report your COVID-19 test result. Please contact your instructor or supervisor to make arrangements for your absence.
If you test positive for COVID-19
If you test positive for COVID-19, you must follow all directives from the Manitoba Public Health related to self-isolation. Do not travel to the university.
