[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] Hanyang University will operate a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing system on campus to prevent COVID-19 as it prepares to expand in-person classes starting next month.
On the 25th, Hanyang University announced that it introduced the system to alleviate students' anxiety about the expanded in-person classes starting in September, prevent the spread of COVID-19, and gradually normalize educational and research functions.
Students living in dormitories and those attending classes where wearing masks is difficult must undergo mandatory PCR testing once a week. Other members of the school community may get tested if they wish. Test results will be notified within 4 hours.
