Humber College said it is monitoring the novel coronavirus outbreak and its “potential impact on the institution” in a statement posted online last week and updated on Monday.
Toronto Public Health told the college that “there are no particular actions required” at this time.
A special group tasked with keeping the campus community informed on the latest precautions for the virus has been established, made up of stakeholders from various departments and the University of Guelph-Humber.
Humber points students, staff and faculty to the Ontario Ministry of Health website’s dedicated webpage for updates.
The college’s announcement also asked that those on campus “wash their hands as frequently as possible” due to it being the winter flu season.
As of Tuesday morning in Ontario, there is one confirmed case of the novel coronavirus, one “presumptive” case and 11 cases under investigation.
