政府は、8月2日（月）から9月12日（日）まで神奈川県に緊急事態宣言を発出することを決定しましたが、本学の対応はこれまでと変わらず、各キャンパスにおける新型コロナウイルス感染防止策を徹底し、学生、教職員の皆さんの安全を確保しつつ、現在の授業形態を夏季休業期間終了まで継続します。夏期集中講義は科目により授業形態が異なりますので、最新のお知らせを確認の上、受講してください。

なお、後学期授業に関するご案内は、後学期開始前にWeBSt@tionのお知らせに掲出しますので、ご確認ください。

◆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ます。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 Continued Spread of COVID-19 (From 2 August Onwards)

The Japanese Government has announced that it had been decided that a COVID-19 state of emergency will once again be issued for Kanagawa Prefecture from Monday 2 August to Sunday 12 September.

However, at Kanagawa University, we will continue with our current COVID-19 countermeasures on each campus to ensure the safety of our students and staff. At the same time we will continue with the class structure for First Semester for any classes held until the end of the Summer Vacation period. The class style for the summer intensive classes will vary depending on the type of class so we ask our students to refer to the latest notices when taking classes.

With regard to classes for Second (Fall) Semester, please refer to the notices on WeB St@tion before classes commence.

The number of infected people and close contacts among current students and university staff is increasing. 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 has become more prevalent and cases of young people getting the virus and even developing serious symptoms have increased. 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.
