Information to students and staff at Keilir. 

 

As state of alert has now been issued because of the COVID-19 coronavirus The Department of Civil Protection and Emergency Management emphasises the importance that everyone follows instructions issued by the Icelandic chief of epidemiology. Newest information can always be found on the web: www.landlaeknir.is/koronaveira/english

 

We ask you to closely and regularly monitor which areas have been defined as risk areas. If you or your families have been staying in those areas, they will need to go into quarantine as instructed by the Directorate of Health. Those who have been in close contact with individuals that have a confirmed or possible infection will need to go into quarantine, as will those who have recently travelled to areas defined as risk areas. 

 

Individuals who have symptoms and might have been exposed to infection, for example due to travelling, are encouraged to contact health authorities by calling the number 1700 or at www.heilsuveira.is.

 

We encourage you all to seek and follow all necessary information in order to contain the spread of the virus. Information regarding sanitation as well as disinfectant spray will be set up in all bathrooms in the Keilir main building. 

 

Best regards,

Johann Fridrik Fridriksson, Director of Keilir Academy
