COVID-19 Campus Communications

To provide timely, accurate, and transparent information to the Shasta College community the Shasta College EOC will update the following information related to COVID-19 cases occurring on campus on a consistent basis.

Our intent is to provide clear directions to students and employees related to confirmed exposures to mitigate misinformation and answer shared questions which arise from these incidents. In the event of a confirmed case on campus, the Shasta College EOC will follow up with the departments that are impacted.

Based on our policies and protocols, the college must protect the privacy rights of the students and employees affected, while also working to share information necessary to protect the health of the campus and the broader community. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to keep our campus community safe.

The California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board, Emergency Temporary Standards, adopted June 17, 2021, states the employer shall within one business day of the time the employer knew or should have known of a COVID-19 case, give written notice, in a form readily understandable by employees, that people at the worksite may have been exposed to COVID-19. The notice shall be written in a way that does not reveal any personal identifying information of the COVID-19 case. 

Employees and Students are encouraged to visit https://www.co.shasta.ca.us/ready/covid-19/overview  for additional Covid-19 related information.

Once a positive case has been certified by a testing center, Shasta College Campus Safety personnel begin to conduct contact tracing. Close contacts from the exposure are notified by Campus Safety, usually by phone or email, and the next steps that they should take are communicated (usually starting with getting tested). The area of exposure is also cleaned using CDC approved standards, https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/schools-childcare/clean-disinfect-hygiene.html.

Shasta County Public Health is notified once a case is confirmed. Shasta College and Public Health are working closely together to take the necessary steps to protect our community and prevent the spread of COVID-19. 

Due to the potential of exposure to COVID-19 that we all face in the community, we encourage everyone to please continue to monitor yourself for symptoms and stay home if you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms: fever, chills, shortness of breath/difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, sore throat, new loss of taste or smell, nasal congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, or diarrhea.
