As a component of its overall health and safety plan, Chestnut Hill College has created a COVID Dashboard including data regarding positive cases, positivity rates, and available quarantine/isolation space related to the on-campus community, Philadelphia, and Pennsylvania. Testing includes results from symptomatic testing and asymptomatic surveillance testing. These numbers include cases that have an impact on our community. Cases identified on campus are referred to contact tracing and individuals are quarantined or isolated at home or in an on-campus location. Research has shown that contact tracing and surveillance testing are key components to limiting the spread of COVID-19 in settings such as colleges.
