All students should familiarize themselves with Dartmouth’s COVID-19 mitigation guidelines and resources. Please keep in mind that these approaches are subject to change.
Contact the Dartmouth College Health Service with health-related questions.
Resources are also available through the Student Wellness Center.
Follow the CDC’s respiratory virus guidance that includes:
Staying up to date with your immunizations, including COVID-19 vaccines.
If you have symptoms of a respiratory virus, stay home and away from others.
You can return to regular activities when, for at least 24 hours, your symptoms are getting better overall, and you have not had a fever and are not using fever-reducing medication.
After returning to regular activities, take precautions (such as masking and taking steps for cleaner air) for at least five days. If you develop a fever or start to feel worse, stay home and away from others again.
If you test positive for a respiratory virus but do not have symptoms, take precautions for at least five days because you may be contagious.
If you or the people around you are sick, were recently exposed to a respiratory virus, or have risk factors for severe illness, take precautions.
Precautions include wearing masks, taking steps for cleaner air, physical distancing, and practicing good hygiene, and testing.
