Boston University is currently moving forward with COVID-19 vaccinations of students with two or more medical conditions, but the process is experiencing setbacks from a limited supply, said a BU Medical Advisory Group member.
Boston University has been given approval to start sequencing all positive COVID-19 tests to scan for the newly identified variants of the disease, according to a member of BU’s Medical Advisory Group.
Boston University will restrict students who play brass or woodwind instruments in any college or club from performing in group ensembles due to COVID-19 guidance, according to College of Fine Arts School of Music’s Michael Barsano.
Boston University experienced a spike in the on-campus positive test rate for COVID-19, as students, faculty and staff prepare for their return to campus after the holidays.
With more than 1 million people around the world dead from COVID-19, the hunt for a vaccine is underway, and more than 100 countries are aiding its development.
BU’s COVID-19 testing allows for students to arrive at their appointments earlier or later than their scheduled time as long as it is on the same day, according to multiple students.
