Corona virus – update #34 – 04/01/2022

To: Technion community

Starting tomorrow, we will place a booth in the Ullman Teaching center (8AM through 2PM daily) where students & staff will be able to purchase an antigen corona test kit for personal usage only.  The (subsidized) cost is 10 NIS and the purchase can be done only through the Technion application (if you don’t have one, please download it from the Google or Apple stores onto your mobile phone).  If the test result is positive, one has to leave the campus immediately and move into self-isolation space. For those living on campus, please coordinate with the Dorms’ Office the logistics of your quarantine.  Positive outcome requires one to follow up with a PCR test.

As indicated in a letter sent yesterday by the Senior VP (prof. Rabinovitch) to the students and Academic Staff, we have decided to continue our teaching and research activities as before.  To enable us to maintain these core operations, I am asking everyone to adhere to the regulations regarding wearing face masks and avoiding congested spaces. Work related meetings should be carried out, as much as possible, through Zoom.

Anyone infected with COVID, or that is aware of someone else in our community that was affected, should report it ASAP to the relevant administrative staff.  We are doing our best to collect & analyze the data on confirmed cases as it helps us make the right decisions while the pandemic continue to evolve over time.

With best wishes of good health to all,

Boaz

Corona virus – update #26 – 19/02/2021

Gradual return to routine on campus

Dear Technion community
 
Starting on Sunday (Feb. 21st ), the government plans a wide scale gradual opening of the economy back to its routine operation.  Within this framework, we plan to re-open our Sports Center, including the swimming pools complex and the gym.  Only people holding formal Vaccination Confirmations,  Recovery from COVID confirmation or negative result in COVID test taken within the last 48 hours will be eligible to enter these places . Similarly, the MICHLOL store will re-open under similar restrictions and we are hoping to open additional stores on campus.  Please note that supermarkets on campus remain open to all (i.e., no need to present special confirmations to enter them) as they are considered essential services.
 
Also on Sunday and beyond, the limitations on the number of people congregating in close space will be lifted from 5 to 10 and in open space from 10 to 20.  Students who lack proper learning conditions at home are invited to use the learning spaces spread across the campus under the set of Purple Badge regulations and particularly under the limitation of the number of people allowed to stay together in a given space as mentioned above.
 
Please note that we continue to require Health Declaration or Vaccination/Recovery Confirmation in order to enter the Technion gates.
 
Sincerely,
 
Boaz
