Our Data Dashboard
Updates on the number of COVID-19 tests tallied and cases positive among faculty, staff, students and UF affiliates are posted daily as part of the university’s commitment to transparency. We track data from a variety of sources in an effort to be as comprehensive as possible.
How our initiative works
Screen and Test
We screen and test our UF community for COVID-19, to help make our campus and our community safer.
Trace
State of Florida Department of Health public health specialists trace, or locate, all people in contact with the individuals who tested positive, and provide guidance to them to be tested and/or to self-quarantine and monitor for symptoms.
Protect
If a test comes back positive, we ask the individual to isolate.
Prevent
We prevent the spread of the disease by continuing best practices such as frequent handwashing, physical distancing and wearing masks.
