Public Health Response

Helping Protect Yourself, Our Campus, and Our Greater Community

Boise State is committed to doing all we can as a university to prevent and/or minimize the spread of communicable diseases and their consequences as well as addressing campus public health concerns.

Together we can support a safe working, learning, and living environment for ourselves, each other, and our community.

New This Fall!

Public Health has released new “Down There Care” testing kits! Visit our Sexually Transmitted Infection Testing page for more information.

This testing kit is available to everyone at Boise State University and the greater community!

COVID-19 Guidance

Please Note:

On March 1st, 2024, CDC guidelines (view the guidelines) changed regarding COVID-19 recommendations. This is because we are in a very different place with COVID-19 than we once were.

For these reasons, there are no longer requirements for isolating when you test positive for COVID-19.

You do not need to contact Public Health with information about a case of COVID-19 unless you live on campus and have a shared bedroom and would like to take advantage of Public Health Housing.

Visit our Respiratory Viruses webpage for more information.
