Information related to new coronary infections

In the event of infection with a new type of coronavirus infection (COVID-19), attendance will be suspended “until five days have passed after the onset of symptoms and one day has passed after symptoms have abated,” in accordance with the School Health and Safety Law. (A positive test result is also considered a positive result if the student does not visit a medical institution but tests positive by self-testing, etc.). Therefore, a medical certificate from a medical institution is not necessarily required to suspend attendance.）

Please consult with your instructor or the Educational Records and Programs Office for details on how to handle classes (including regular examinations) during the period of suspended attendance.
