捆绑SM社区

To all McIntyre Medical Sciences Building occupants,

Further to what was communicated to you over the weekend,听the McIntyre Building remains closed. We anticipate it will stay closed through to at least Sunday, July 22 while 捆绑SM社区, together with the external support teams and experts, continue their work. We understand this creates challenges and we thank you for your ongoing patience and cooperation, which are crucial at this stage.听The work is progressing well, thanks to the efforts of all involved. 捆绑SM社区鈥檚 goal is to return the McIntyre to normal operations as soon as possible.听Please bear in mind that the remediation operation is very complex and requires space and time.听听

We know that听research听ongoing within McIntyre is very important. We must reiterate that only inurgent and essential听cases can access be permitted, with security escort, and only for a maximum of one hour. To facilitate the process for those with urgent and essential needs, we are implementing the following protocol:

Please do not present yourself at McIntyre if you have not completed the above steps, as you will not be able to enter.

Additionally, if you are expecting research-related deliveries at the McIntyre, we ask that you cancel them until further notice.

If you are a听faculty or staff member听who works in the McIntyre, we ask that you remain at home until further notice; if you are able to work from home, please do so.

Again, we understand this is challenging for all who work in the McIntyre. Rest assured, the many teams mobilized to return the building to normal operations are doing all they can to do so, efficiently and safely.听Thank you, again, for your full cooperation, and please watch your emails for the next update.

Thank you, also, for ensuring students in labs are well aware of the above.
