**An outbreak is defined by the Durham Region Health Department as two or more lab-confirmed COVID-19 cases in students and/or employees (or other visitors) where at least one case could have reasonably acquired their infection on campus.

Please note: if Public Health determines there is a health and safety risk on campus due to a positive case of COVID-19, the college will be provided with directives and appropriate steps will be taken. Public Health will directly contact any individuals deemed to be at risk.

As a reminder, the health and safety of our campus community remains our highest priority and DC has taken extensive measures to help control the spread of COVID-19. This includes, ensuring all people coming to campus take the COVID-19 Pre-entry Screening Questionnaire, limiting the amount of people on campus, as well as implementing very strict preventative safety measures and enhanced cleaning and disinfection protocols.
