A new academic year began in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to allow for in-person learning, a fundamental part of medical education, some medical schools grappled with how to safely move students into shared on-campus housing. The authors describe a behavior-based strategy to safely move students from all parts of the United States to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx, New York. This strategy included a school-organized phased move-in that included 14-day quarantines for students coming from states with high COVID prevalence; requiring students to sign a COVID-agreement; the use of a phone-based daily COVID risk assessment; and facilitation of safe in-person social activities with peer monitoring of adherence to behavior guidelines. This strategy resulted in no known transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in student housing between July and October of the 2020 to 2021 academic year. The authors share this strategy in the hope that colleagues at other medical schools will find it useful in utilizing similar behavior-based strategies to keep students safe in shared housing.

在 COVID-19 大流行期间将医学生搬入共享住房

在 COVID-19 大流行期间,新的学年开始了。为了让面对面学习成为医学教育的基本组成部分,一些医学院努力解决如何安全地将学生转移到共享校内住宿的问题。作者描述了一种基于行为的策略,以安全地将学生从美国各地转移到纽约布朗克斯的阿尔伯特爱因斯坦医学院。该策略包括学校组织的分阶段搬入,其中包括对来自 COVID 流行率高的州的学生进行 14 天隔离;要求学生签署 COVID 协议;使用基于电话的每日 COVID 风险评估;和促进安全的面对面社交活动,同时对遵守行为准则的同伴进行监测。该策略导致在 2020 年至 2021 学年的 7 月至 10 月期间,没有已知的 SARS-CoV-2 在学生宿舍中传播。作者分享了这个策略,希望其他医学院的同事会发现它在利用类似的基于行为的策略来保证学生在共享住房中的安全方面很有用。
