You were notified last month of your requirement to participate in mandatory pooled
surveillance testing pursuant to SUNY requirements and the Memorandums of Understanding
(MOUs) between the State and the unions.
You are receiving this email as our records indicate that you have failed to participate
in the required campus weekly COVID-19 surveillance testing. You are therefore directed
to comply with this requirement and report to the SAC for pooled testing immediately
and no later than September 23, 2021. This information and directive is being shared
with your supervisor. Should you fail to comply with this directive, administrative
action may be taken against you.
Testing is available without an appointment. Please check the Testing and Screening Information website for the most current schedules and locations.
SUNY requirements and the MOUs require that individuals who are not fully vaccinated
or who have not shared their vaccination status with HR must test once per week. Fully
vaccinated employees who share their vaccination status with HR may opt out from mandatory
weekly testing, and must test once a month. If you are fully vaccinated and still
need to share your vaccination status with HR through the SOLAR portal, [click here
for instructions].
Please note, if you are a School of Medicine Clinical Faculty member, or if your work
involves patient care or contact, you must follow the guidance issued by Stony Brook
Medicine. If you would like to receive a COVID vaccination, stop by our vaccination
site located in the Innovation & Discovery Building (IDC) in Stony Brook’s Research
and Development (R&D) Park. The site is open starting at 8:00 am, seven days a week,
with walk-in appointments available.

status in SOLAR, or wish to provide other information, please let us know via this response form.
