The following measures are being taken:

Cancellation or postponement of travelling, specially to regions where active transmission of the COVID-19 exists in the community, being given priority to long-distance work facilities. 

  • The non-execution of scientific or other face-to-face reunions which, due to the involvement or high accumulation of international participants, may constitute a risk of spread.
  • The postponement of international congresses, whenever possible, expected for the ULisboa and the non-participation of the Ulisboa community members in similar reunions;
  • ULisboa visitors and members of the community who have been to places where there is active transmission of the new coronavirus, must respect a 14 day period of quarantine and:
  • Be watchful to the emergence of fever, coughing or difficulty breathing;
  • Check whether anyone whom you have had close contact with has developed any of the symptoms (fever, coughing or difficulty breathing);
