Together for Maine Daily Briefing and COVID-19 Data Update: 11/5/20

University of Maine System COVID Data by Campus 

NOTE:  Today’s update was delayed to share developing news at UMaine.  

12 — Known Case of UMS students or employees in public health agency Isolation

  • 7 UMaine:  3 new cases involving employees and one new case involving a student who resides off campus.  See the UMaine update below for additional details.
  • 1 UMF:  
  • 4 USM:  One new case involving a residential student identified in UMS testing and one new case involving a student who resides off campus. 

There are no known cases at the other University of Maine System universities. 

The above Data reflects ACTIVE known cases identified through the UMS asymptomatic screening and other testing venues.  When an individual is released from an isolation order by a public health agency the active case number shared in the Together for Maine daily update is reduced to reflect that change.  UMS is reporting 12 known cases today, six cases more than the cases reported in the 11/4/20 update.
