Get Your Vaccine
Access vaccination information through the Moffitt Health Center and Mississippi State Department of Health websites.
Wear Your Face Covering
Wear a face covering over the nose and mouth to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Effective August 6, 2021:
- Due to the prevalence of the highly transmissible Delta Variant, face coverings must be worn universally indoors for all students, faculty, staff, and visitors, regardless of vaccination status, unless an individual is in an isolated space. This requirement will continue to be reevaluated as public health guidance evolves throughout the surge associated with the Delta Variant.
- Face coverings are strongly recommended in any other setting in which people are in close contact.
Keep Your Distance
Avoid close contact by maintaining physical distance from others.
Physical distancing modifications have been made to on-campus housing, on-campus dining
facilities, classrooms, common areas and study spaces, where possible.
Wash Your Hands
Maintain good personal hygiene by washing hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or use hand sanitizer of at least 60% alcohol.
Monitor Your Health
Conduct a daily self-screening to assess for symptoms, stay home when sick, and seek
medical care if needed.
All USM faculty, staff and students are required to self-screen each day for symptoms
of COVID-19 before coming onto any University property or going to class.
