Together for Maine Daily Briefing and COVID-19 Data Update: 9/4/20

University of Maine System COVID Data by Campus 

14 — Known Cases of UMS students or employees in ME CDC Isolation

  • 9 UMaine: 1 new student case and 1 student released from isolation
    • 7 UMaine students isolating off-campus
    • 2 UMaine students isolating on-campus
  • 1 UMF: an adjunct faculty member isolating in the Farmington area
  • 4 USM: 
    • 3 USM students isolating on-campus
    • 1 USM student isolating off-campus 

There are no known cases at the other University of Maine System universities. 

The above Data reflects ACTIVE known cases identified through the UMS asymptomatic screening and other testing venues.  When an individual is released from an isolation order by the Maine CDC the active case number shared in the Together for Maine daily update is reduced to reflect that change.  UMS is reporting 14 known cases today, the same number as reported in the  9/3/20 update

About 48 hours passes from the time a test sample is collected and when the results are known.
