On the morning of September 1, members of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte community received an email from the school's NinterNotice communication tool informing that the first COVID-19 clsuter of the 2020-2021 academic year had been reported. The email, sent at 9:19am, detailed that the "Mecklenburg County Health Department [had] confirmed an off-campus COVID-19 cluster involving eight students residing together in two private residences. These students isolated appropriately and have since recovered". At the time of this story's publishing, there have been no further emails sent via NinerNotice to community members regarding COVID-19 clsuters, on-campus or otherwise. This is likely to due the small student occupancy living on UNC Charlotte's campus following Chancellor Sharon L. Gaber's announcement that the start of in-person classes would be pushed back until October 1 and that move-in for students would be delayed until September 26. At a September 10 Student Government Association meeting, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Kevin Bailey estimated that around 1,000 students are currently residing on UNC Charlotte's campus. UNC Charlotte, like other UNC System institutions, is currently maintaining a digital COVID-19 dashboard to track positive cases in students, staff and faculty, both for those living and working on campus as well as students staying home for the fall. As of 5:00pm on September 10, there were a total of 104 confirmed COVID-19 cases across the entire UNC Charlotte community since July 1. Below is a screenshot of the UNC Charlotte COVID-19 dashboard. Updates are typically made around 5:00pm each weekday. In addition to the upkeep of the COVID-19 dashboard, UNC Charlotte has also implemented a "Niner Health Check Daily Screening" a daily online survey consisting of questions regarding students' health, symptoms, and potential interactions with sick people. Associate Vice Chancellor for Safety and Security John Bogdan remarked at the September 10 SGA meeting that he estimates 50% of the UNC Charlotte community to be completing the Niner Health Check on a daily basis. ● The Recommended Content Widget will appear here on the published site.
