COVID-19 updates
(Updated November 17, 2022)
Protecting U of T from seasonal respiratory viruses
Vaccination: Attend an on-campus vaccine clinic to get a flu or COVID shot (OHIP/UHIP not necessary!)
Sick? Stay home!: Students can use the absence declaration tool, which is a convenient way to let your instructors know you’re staying home when sick.
Masks: Medical masks are strongly encouraged in high-density indoor settings when physical distancing is not possible. Visitors to health sciences buildings are asked to wear masks.
Improved classroom ventilation: Breatheeasy: our classrooms meet industry-leading ventilation standards.
Improved building ventilation & air filtration: MERV 13 filters & daily air flushing keep the air inside our buildings clean.
Enhanced cleaning: Sanitizer, wipes, and increased cleaning work together with your hand washing routine.
