Minnesota State System Data
- Minnesota State System-Wide COVID Dashboard — Updated every Friday around noon
Bemidji State University submits weekly COVID-19 case data to the Minnesota State system. This report defines a “case” of COVID-19 as a person with a lab-confirmed for COVID-19 that has been verified by a Local Public Health entity, or a self-verified positive test, and has had contact with campus or lived within 60 miles of campus while infectious (a).
This system reporting data represents only a subset of the total positive cases that we are aware of among our employees and students. In order to provide as transparent and accurate a picture as possible of the COVID-19 conditions on campus, we are also sharing more inclusive data.
Minnesota State updates its dashboard weekly on Friday mornings. BSU data is updated in the evening, Monday through Friday, typically by 8 p.m. Central time.
