Simpson College COVID Plan and Phases
Updated Jan. 6, 2022
Phase Guidelines
Simpson mask use guidelines will be determined as follows:
| Warren Cty. Community Level Low/Moderate | Mask use optional (current status) |
| Warren Cty. Community Level High | Mask use recommended |
| Campus case count of 1%+ in previous 7 days | Mask use required |
Here is helpful context for mask use requirement based on >1% case prevalence:
| Campus Community = 1,400 people | Exceeding 1% of 1,400= 15+ new cases in previous 7 days |
| January to Mid-February 2022 | Routinely exceeded 1% (highest COVID rates of the pandemic were experienced) |
| From Mid-February to Now | Routinely less than 1% (0-5 cases) |
