Keene State Provides 10,000 COVID Tests to Keep Community Healthy and Safe

A safe return to Keene State’s campus, and the ongoing health and safety of the College and broader Keene community, remain the College’s commitments as the fall 2021 semester progresses. Science-based safety measures remain place, with a more typical, in-person experience underway this semester on campus.

Health and safety protocols such as an indoor mask mandate, physical distancing of 3 feet whenever possible, encouraging vaccination with College-sponsored on-campus clinics, a Rapid Response Team dedicated to immediate contact tracing, and campus arrival COVID-19 testing, with weekly testing for every College community member on campus through September, are proving to be effective measures. In fact, as of today, Keene State has administered 10,000 COVID-19 tests, with very few positive results.
