Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) is carrying out a comprehensive disinfection procedure against Covid-19, commonly known as Coronavirus. Due to an increase in the number of countries where Covid-19 has now been detected, adding on to the existing precautions already taken prior to the virus being detected in our country and now the virus being detected in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), the Rector’s Office established “COVID-19 Awareness Committee” continues to work effectively and intensely in an effort to protect all EMU students and staff. Accordingly, a comprehensive disinfection process has been initiated by the EMU Emergency Cleaning and Disinfection Team consisting of the EMU Cleaning Affairs Branch personnel, all of whom received Occupational Health and Safety training.
