The University of Iowa has released its latest COVID-19 figures.

According to Friday’s update, nine new COVID-19 cases have been reported among UI students and one among UI employees between Wednesday and Friday. That’s a total of 2,966 student cases and 434 employee cases since the beginning of the fall 2020 semester.

No residence hall occupants are currently under quarantine, and two are in self-isolation. Quarantine is used to keep someone who might have been exposed to COVID-19 away from others, while self-isolation is used to separate people infected with the virus from people who are not infected.
