Johns Hopkins University , UPDATE January, 23, 2024 4:30 PM ESTUpdate on COVID-19 ProtocolsThroughout the fall and winter seasons, we have closely monitored respiratory virus updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and departments of health in states where Johns Hopkins Medicine health care facilities are located. Respiratory illnesses--including COVID-19, influenza and respiratory syncytial virus continue to rise — resulting in increased hospitalization rates, while vaccination rates remain low among the general population.Considering this information and recent guidance from the Maryland Department of Health, we will resume mandatory masking for patients, visitors and employees in all Johns Hopkins Medicine locations in the state of Maryland, regardless of vaccination status, effective 1/12/2024.If you are experiencing respiratory symptoms (cough, sore throat, runny nose) please wear a mask, even if you believe the respiratory symptoms are due to a non-COVID infection or allergies.Visitors of JHM may be required to stop and present valid identification prior to entrance.Welcome to the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Office of Continuing Medical Education (OCME).
