Forward Together Update

Dear Panther Community,

As COVID-19 case counts continue to rapidly decline in the State of Iowa, the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) has updated the format of their COVID-19 reporting data. This updated format more closely aligns COVID-19 reporting with existing IDPH reporting standards for other respiratory viruses. UNI’s COVID-19 Response Team encourages you to review this updated site so that you can make smart decisions about your health.

IDPH continues to urge all eligible Iowans to get vaccinated and boosted. The Student Health Clinic will be offering COVID-19 vaccines throughout the spring 2022 semester on Wednesday afternoons from 1 - 3 p.m. and Thursday mornings from 9 - 11 a.m. Please call the COVID-19 phone line at 319-273-2100 to set up an appointment. To locate a vaccine off campus, visit vaccines.gov to find vaccination providers near you.

If you have a question, please visit forwardtogether.uni.edu or email it to forwardtogether@uni.edu. Thanks for all that you do to keep yourself, your family and the Panther community safe. Your proactive efforts make a difference, which helps immensely in ensuring a successful spring semester.

Stay Well,

Joseph Rayzor,
Director of Risk Management, Environmental Health and Safety
