Re: New COVID-19 Cases Reported to Caltech

Since our last update, 1 member of the Caltech community have reported positive COVID-19 test results to Student Wellness Services (SWS). They include:

  • 1 student (1 living on campus)

There are currently 1 individuals isolating in spaces set aside in Caltech housing.

Moving forward, the COVID-19 Management Team will only send out daily notifications of positive cases at Caltech. On days when no positive cases have been reported among the community, we will not issue the daily memo.

The safety and security of Caltech's students, staff, and faculty is a priority. As such, all members of the Caltech community are expected to:

  • Adhere to the Institute's vaccination policies.
  • Notify SWS immediately if you are ill, have had a positive test for COVID-19, or have been exposed to anyone with a positive test for COVID-19.
  • Stay home if you are ill, have a fever, or have otherwise been instructed to quarantine or isolate.
  • Regularly wash your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds or use hand sanitizer with at least 60 percent alcohol.

We also encourage everyone reporting on-site to participate and enroll in Caltech's surveillance testing program.

Information about Caltech's response to the pandemic, as well as its COVID-19 procedures and policies, can be found on the Caltech Together coronavirus website. Reports of illness, testing metrics, and confirmed case counts can be found on a dedicated dashboard. Please note that JPL tracks COVID-19 cases separately and is not included in these data.
