STATEWIDE INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION (IHE) COVID-19 CASES - Spring 2022

LDH worked closely with the Louisiana Board of Regents and institutions of higher education in developing this reporting process. Sharing facility-level information is not standard public health practice, but we made an exception here at the request of the Board of Regents.

Total number of cases among students living or attending classes on-campus  5884
Total number of cases among students exclusively attending virtual classes** 330
Total number of cases among faculty and staff working on-campus  2122
Total number of cases among faculty and staff working 100% virtually**  27

*Cases are defined as individuals reported to have positive SARS-CoV-2 molecular or antigen laboratory tests. Cases are self-reported by IHE currently enrolled in the school reporting system.

** Not all IHE track or report cases among virtual students and staff.
