Initiatives to All Students, Faculty and Staff

June 1, 2021

Dear all,

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, all SUSTech members have stood as one to carry on measures against the virus, which ensures the safety and well being of the SUSTech community and the normal operations of teaching and research. Now, the campaign against the pandemic has entered a critical period which requires the whole university to continue to stay alert and implement the strictest, safest and most thorough prevention and control measures. To this end, we propose:

I．All departments should fully aware of the complexity, severity and continuity of the pandemic and always stay alert and act on the existing guidelines and protocols on COVID-19 prevention and control.

II. All members of Sustech should enhance personal protection and wear masks and please cooperate with measures for COVID-19 control such as taking temperature and presenting your campus card at the gates of the university. Also, all people should disinfect, clean and ventilate your room and office regularly and maintain social distance, and organize or participate in online meetings and events instead of offline ones and receive the COVID-19 vaccine in a timely manner to protect your safety and health. Fill in the daily health report on time. Please do not go outside of the campus or leave Shenzhen unless it is absolutely necessary and if you really need to, please report to the related department.

III. All members should pay close attention to news of the pandemic in authoritative channels. To maintain social stability and harmony, please do not create rumors, believe rumors or spread rumors about unconfirmed information.

IV. Grass-roots CPC organizations and CPC members shall play their significant roles in the battle against the pandemic, perform their duties, and keep close contacts with faculty and students to safeguard the wellbeing of the SUSTech community.

Together, we stand. At this critical time, let’s unit as one to fight against COVID-19!
