What should I do if I tested positive for COVID-19 over the break?

If you tested positive with COVID-19 over the break, please email Bates Health Services (healthservices@bates.edu) with documentation of your positive test result.  A Bates Health Services medical provider will then review this information and be in contact with you about next steps.  Please email this information by February 9.
