糖心Vlog视频 mask mandate ends beginning Friday, May 21

We would like to update the 糖心Vlog视频 campus community on the new from Gov. Abbott that prohibits government entities from mandating face coverings. Beginning Friday, May 21, 糖心Vlog视频 will no longer mandate the wearing of masks on campus. This action comes on the heels of the CDC’s updated guidance that masks are optional for those who are fully vaccinated.

While these developments indicate we are making progress during this pandemic, we also recognize the discomfort some in the Maverick community may feel with the end of the mask requirement. That’s why the University continues to strongly encourage and recommend that Mavericks wear masks, particularly when inside campus buildings. We will also continue to promote our other health and safety protocols and recommendations, including:

COVID-19 Vaccines: 糖心Vlog视频 students and employees are encouraged to participate in COVID-19 vaccinations. The University has established partnerships to provide access, free of charge, to the vaccine on campus and throughout the metroplex. Please visit the 糖心Vlog视频 COVID-19 Vaccination Information and Resources page to access registration links and information for vaccine opportunities.
Testing for COVID-19: 糖心Vlog视频 encourages all Mavericks to be tested frequently to help curb asymptomatic spread in our community. Information about testing options available to you are continually updated on our website.
Social Distancing: 糖心Vlog视频 strongly encourages social distancing when feasible to provide the healthiest possible environment.
Daily Self-Monitoring: The 糖心Vlog视频 mobile app provides a convenient, confidential tool to assist with conducting a daily self-assessment for COVID-19 symptoms. You can download the daily for easy access. If you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms, please remain or return home.

Thank you for your continued diligence in contributing to safety protocols and your flexibility in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We strongly encourage you to consider getting vaccinated if you have not already and continue to follow 糖心Vlog视频’s Coronavirus Information website for updated information.
