Vaccination against COVID-19
The university encourages all members of the DUT community to get vaccinated against COVID-19, especially during flu season when symptoms overlap. Public sector vaccination centres are available nationwide, and some private pharmacies like DisChem also offer the vaccine.

Reporting a positive COVID-19 test result
If you test positive for COVID-19, you are asked to inform the DUT's COVID-19 Response Task Team so they can track the spread within the university community.
If you test positive for COVID-19, please inform the COVID-19 Response Task Team so that we have a more accurate picture of the prevalence of COVID-19 among the DUT community.
