HAMPTON ROADS, Va. (WAVY) — Colleges and universities across Hampton Roads have launched online dashboards to track COVID-19 cases, in an effort to keep their communities informed.

Here are the colleges and universities in Hampton Roads that have launched a coronavirus dashboard.

Norfolk State University

On-campus COVID-19 testing at NSU began on August 26. The university said surveillance testing will also be conducted.

“To provide transparency to the university community,” the NSU COVID-19 dashboard will be updated every Monday at 5 p.m.

Old Dominion University

Old Dominion University in Norfolk is providing weekly updates in its COVID-19 dashboard. It displays cumulative case totals, isolation and quarantine information and weekly testing numbers.

The university delayed its fall return to campus amid the pandemic, which officials said also allowed more time to get an on-campus testing center up and running.

ODU has invested in a COVID-19 clinical diagnostics lab at Innovation Research Park, which the school says is one of the only research parks in the nation located on the campus of its research institution.

William & Mary

William & Mary launched an online dashboard to inform staff and students about the university’s return-to-campus COVID-19 testing results. It now features data from W&M’s testing program, that includes the number of tests conducted and the number of positive tests among students and employees.

The college is testing its students before they arrive on campus and is requiring a negative test before they can live on campus or use the school’s facilities.

The testing data provided by William & Mary is through a partnership with Kallaco and VCU Health Services.

Earlier this month, the College launched a virtual tool users can use to monitor their physical health during the COVID-19 pandemic, check symptoms, and become aware of overall healthy habits.

The university began prevalence testing of members of campus August 24 and will be updating the dashboard on a weekly basis each Monday

Christopher Newport University

CNU has launched an online dashboard to inform students and staff of active coronavirus cases. CNU also informed students and employees on how to report a case to their Human Resources.

The dashboard has evolved since its launch. In addition to active and total cases, it now includes a section with isolation and quarantine on/off campus data.

A message on the dashboard states:

Christopher Newport does not wait for verification from the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) before responding to a report of a positive test. The numbers shown here include positive tests reported to us – as required – by students and employees. Students reporting a case with a positive test result are immediately placed into isolation/quarantine and community tracing on campus begins as outlined in the University’s reopening plan.

Be aware, there are “false positives” in test results and the Virginia Department of Health determines if a case is confirmed.

To protect individuals’ private health information, Christopher Newport will not identify or provide identifying information about students or employees diagnosed with COVID-19.

Active cases are defined as the number of people who have been on campus, reported a positive test and have been directed to isolate either on campus or off-campus.

Virginia Wesleyan University

 VWU CovidSafe is updated weekly on Wednesdays, providing information on the University’s confirmed coronavirus cases. The numbers indicate active, confirmed cases from the prior week.
