In alignment with guidance from the Mississippi State Department of Health, active cases are rolled off the UM COVID-19 dashboard after 10 days from symptom onset or the date of the test if the patient was asymptomatic as they are presumed recovered. Because some cases may be reported after their 10 day active period, the daily count of confirmed cases may differ from the active case count.
Visit the “Confirmed Cases Page” to see an aggregate listing of cases of COVID-19 confirmed since March 16, 2020, among UM employees and students that have been reported to the university or confirmed by state and/or public health agencies.
The Sentinel Testing dashboard reflects the cumulative results since Sept. 8 when the program was initiated. The dashboard will be updated weekly each Friday. Visit the Sentinel Testing Program page for more information including an overview and FAQs.
