東京都に発出されていた緊急事態宣言が解除されることを受け、本学は、6月21日（月）より面接（対面）授業を再開します。今回、面接（対面）授業となる科目は、４月授業開始時点で面接（対面）授業と設定されていた科目が対象です。

なお、授業科目によっては、実施形態や授業講堂を変更しているものがあるため、WeBSt@tionで最新情報を確認してください。

在学生の皆さんや大学関係者にも感染者や濃厚接触者が増えている状況は変わっていません。授業内での感染防止対策はもとより、授業外でも各自で感染予防に努めてください。最近では特に変異株の感染が広がっており、若者にも感染者が増え、重症化する人も出ています。

変異株の初発症状は風邪と似た軽度のものが多いため医療機関への受診が遅れ、濃厚接触者を増やすことにもつながります。また、変異株はエアロゾル（飛沫感染）が多いと言われているため、エレベーター内など狭い場所での会話を控え、喫食時には個食・黙食に努めましょう。

皆さん自身の身の安全を確保すると同時に、周囲の大切な人の命を守るための「感染しない」「感染させない」ことに配慮し、少しでも体調不良を感じたら外出をせず様子をみてください。学生の皆さんの理性ある行動を願っています。

Kanagawa University Measures with Regard to Lifting of the COVID-19 state of emergency (shift to priority measures such as prevention of spread)

As the state of emergency issued for Tokyo Metropolis will be lifted, Kanagawa University will resume onsite (face-to-face) classes from 21 June. Those classes that were designated face-to-face at the time of commencing the semester in April will once again be held face-to-face.

However, depending on the class, there may be changes to implementation style or lecture room and we ask students to check WeBSt@tion for the latest information.

The situation in which the number of infected people and close contacts is increasing among current students and university officials remains unchanged. In addition to infection control measures in the classroom, please try to prevent infection by yourself outside of class. Recently, spread of variants of the virus in particular has become more prevalent and cases of young people getting the virus and even developing serious symptoms have increased. The initial symptoms of the variants are similar to that of a common cold, which means that many people delay visiting the doctor and have close interaction with more people. Variants seem to have higher chances of aerosol infection so please avoid conversation in closed spaces such as elevators and, when eating, eat alone and silently.

In addition to looking after your own health, at the same time make sure you look after the health of the people around you and act rationally, following the principles of “don’t get infected/don’t infect others”. If you feel even slightly unwell, do not go outside and monitor your situation carefully. We wish that all of you will act rationally and appreciate your cooperation.
