University of Virginia issued the following announcement on July 12
Faculty and staff members in the University of Virginia’s Academic Division must report their COVID-19 vaccination status no later than July 23 if they have not already done so.
As University leaders outlined last month, all faculty and staff members must either provide proof of vaccination or agree to prevalence testing requirements, including at least weekly mandatory saliva PCR testing. Employees can update their vaccination status in Workday; required testing for those who do not report being vaccinated will begin Aug. 2. All faculty and staff are expected to be vaccinated unless they have a medical or religious reason not to get the vaccine.
“Vaccination of our University community members is critical to preventing the spread of COVID-19 and the return to regular, in-person experiences,” UVA Provost Liz Magill and Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer J.J. Davis wrote in the email, sent Monday to employees who have not yet updated their vaccination status. “Thank you for your participation in this important effort to help keep our University community members safe and healthy.”
