UCSF Principles of Community in Response to COVID-19 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we–as members of the UCSF community–affirm that we have an obligation to behave responsibly to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.  

Our responsibility is two-fold: 

  • to protect ourselves, each other, our families, and our communities so that we can  continue to fulfill our mission at UCSF; and, 
  • to serve as role models whose behavior encourages others to adhere to evidence-based public health guidelines that promote the health and safety of our broader communities. 

 

Our responsibilities extend into our personal lives, including at a minimum: 

  • wearing a mask in public and when gathering with individuals outside our households;
  • maintaining a physical distance of at least six feet in public and when gathering with individuals outside our households; and
  • following all public health orders and UCSF policies related to COVID-19. 
     

We commit to adhering fully to current and future public health and emergency response directives and university policies related to the ongoing pandemic.
