ROCK SPRINGS — Western Wyoming Community College’s Rock Springs Campus has had one employee and two students test positive for COVID-19 since Tuesday, October 6, 2020.
The employee is aware of when they were exposed and has not been to campus since the time of exposure and is self-isolating. One student is living in Western’s Residence Halls and is self-isolating. One student lives off campus and is self-isolating.
Contact tracing is conducted by public health officials. Public health officials contact those who have possible exposure to the infected person, then make a recommendation on testing and/or quarantining. When there is a positive case, Public health officials contact either Western’s Dean of Students or Western’s Human Resources (HR) Director, so that the College can take follow-up steps with the student or employee to ensure learning outcomes are met and work-related tasks are managed.
