UWM students and employees are now able to schedule COVID-19 testing using a new sign-up link.<\/p>\n

Students and employees who do not have COVID-19 symptoms can sign up for testing through uwmke.vivi.healthcare<\/a>. UWM requires weekly testing<\/a> for employees and students who are not vaccinated through Nov. 26.<\/p>\n

Testing appointments are available from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday at the UWM Student Union in the Wisconsin Room Lounge. Appointments also are available at UWM at Washington County and UWM at Waukesha from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on specific days.<\/p>\n

Learn more at this FAQ on testing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Students and staff who do not use campus-based testing will have to file proof of testing (or some other exemption) on a weekly basis using the Exemption Form<\/a>. If students and employees test positive and do not have a follow-up test, they are considered positive for COVID-19.<\/p>\n

If you have symptoms:<\/h3>\n

Employees with COVID-19 symptoms should contact their personal health care provider for a test. Employees who have symptoms but test negative should get a confirmatory PCR test.<\/p>\n

Students who have COVID-19 symptoms or primary exposure should call Norris Health Center at 414-229-4716, and the center will schedule a free PCR test for them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
