After consulting with the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department, the University of Nebraska–Lincoln is ending its COVID-19 random mitigation testing program.
The shift comes after ongoing low COVID-19 infection rates in the campus community, including a zero percent positivity in random mitigation testing during the week of March 28.
The university may return to random mitigation testing if necessary due to local increases in COVID-19 cases.
Voluntary testing for COVID-19 continues to be offered on campus. Learn more about accessing the free, saliva-based testing program on the university’s COVID-19 website.
Items that follow were posted prior to March 6. For the most current details on the university's COVID-19 response, click here.
