Due to the growing number of infections with the SARS-COV-2 virus, I would like to remind you that the University of Warsaw has regulations regarding the proper conduct in the event of detection of an infection.

For details in English incl. regarding the functioning of student dormitories (dormitories) you can contact also university’s Welcome Point (https://welcome.uw.edu.pl/).
I would also like to remind you that, according to the regulations, if you are infected (with a positive test result) or you are sent to quarantine due to close contact with an infected person (quarantine according to the regulations does not apply to fully vaccinated persons), you are obliged to inform a student’s affairs office (respectively: r.kamińska@uw.edu.pl or ji.chomicz@uw.edu.pl) and acting Vice-Dean for Student Affairs (wa.student@uw.edu.pl) about the situation.
The notification should contain the following information:

- Information about what the report concerns (positive COVID test with an annotation whether a home test or one in diagnostic point was performed; or quarantine)
- Date of the last day of stay at the Faculty of Archeology. If after this date you participated in classes in other buildings at the university, please also provide such information.
I would like to remind you that it is not enough to report your absence to the lecturers who conduct your classes – cases of SARS-COV-2 infection require compliance with the national regulations in force during the pandemic.
Yours faithfully
