Chris Lewis, MD, vice provost for academic affairs at UC, spoke with a reporter from Fox 19 about an increase in COVID-19 cases on the UC campus. Lewis was able to provide some context. "Considering we have a campus of 46,000 students plus and 12,000 plus faculty and staff, I would say that’s darn good,” explained Lewis, also an assistant professor of family medicine in the UC College of Medicine and a UC Health physician. Since the pandemic began, the university says it has had 585 total positive COVID-19 cases. 567 of those cases were among the students while 18 were employees. But a recent rise in cases shows 184 infected students live on-campus and 383 who do not. “We’ve seen a little bit of a pattern of a mid-week spike that we attribute to likely events, you know, off-campus on the weekends," explained Lewis. "People just tend to be more social.”
