Safer at Home guidelines still in effect in Dane County

May 13, 2020

Public Health Madison Dane County has issued a local public health order that maintains Safer at Home guidelines in Madison and Dane County until May 26.

The action comes in response to a Wisconsin Supreme Court decision on Wednesday that invalidated the state’s Safer at Home Order.

Despite the shift in orders, there is no effect on campus operations, which remain limited to essential services. Students are urged to continue following guidance around limiting unnecessary trips, physical distancing, handwashing and self-monitoring for COVID-19 symptoms.

UW–Madison will continue to make operational, educational, and research decisions during the pandemic informed by ongoing medical and public health collaboration with local, state and federal public health officials.
